Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.96+20080724-14
Severity: normal
Hi,
I ran into something comparable to 497791.
A grub-install 'fixed' it.
> On i386-pc, the grub package never updates the installed version of GRUB
automatically
I didn't see this line until I filed this bug. How am I supposed to know this
and why doesn't it do this automatically?
Greetings,
Olaf

We added now a debconf prompt for running grub-install.
It didn't do it yet because you can't safely execute just grub-install '(hd0)'
device.map could be outdated and hd0 doestn't point to the actual boot
device.
But now debconf shows a list of devices taken from device.map and then
runs grub-install over all that you select.
