Currently, we use a GRUB2 "standalone image" for system tests. It may be that this image is incorrectly generated: for example, modules may be installed or configured incorrectly in the image. There must be a way to debug this by direct inspection of the internal structure. Alternatively, there may be a different kind of image we can use which has this property.

The obvious alternativa is to build disk images but that would require tools unavailable in Windows.

Let us write a FAT32 support library for the JVM.

This will be required for UEFI anyway.
