Happened to connect a USB hub before dealing with the Void drive.  
Noticed the USB socket where the Void drive was connected had a black 
plastic contact carrier and another socket had a blue carrier. Blue is 
USB 3.  Black isn't?  So plugged the USB adapter with the Void drive 
into the blue socket.  Voila; Grub was able to boot the Void system 
reliably. Spent the better part of a day investigating when a USB plug 
just needed moving.  =8~/

In case anyone is interested, these topics remain.

* Why does the ThinkCentre have differing USB sockets?

* With the adapter labeled USB 2.0, why is plugging in USB 3 necessary 
to boot the external system?

* The Grub2 manual could explain more about USB and the nativedisk 
command. In fact, the manual needs work in many places.

Regards,                   ... P.
