--- Begin Message ---Package: grub-pc Version: 1.98+20100804-8 Severity: normal It appears that in upstream commit 2783, made on 2010-09-18 GRUB-legacy configuration file support was added. This includes a utility called 'grub-menulst2cfg' which I used today to debug a problem I was having with a system transitioning from grub1 to grub2[0]. Its a pretty useful utility for transition, and since we are transitioning in squeeze, it would be good to include. Interestingly, a piece of this commit was picked into the package, because the same commit adds the 'legacycfg' module, which contains the 'legacy_configfile' command which I was able to use. Thanks! Micah 0. the problem was that I was not getting any serial output from grub2, even though I had all the settings set how they should be. I ran grub-menulst2cfg from upstream on my old menu.lst and I found one difference which was that I was missing "terminfo serial -g 80x24 vt100" in grub.cfg. So I added that to /etc/grub.d/40_custom then re-ran update-grub and now it works. -- Package-specific info: *********************** BEGIN /proc/mounts /dev/mapper/vg_algae0-root / ext3

I included this in grub-common in the first snapshot taken after this commit, namely 1.99~20101122-1. TBH I think that by now it is a bit late to be worth doing this for squeeze, so I'm just going to close this (although of course by the magic of version tracking it remains open for squeeze if somebody else decides to care ...). > Interestingly, a piece of this commit was picked into the package, > because the same commit adds the 'legacycfg' module, which contains > the 'legacy_configfile' command which I was able to use. I think you must therefore be running a different boot loader version than you claimed in your bug report header; for instance if you have multiple OS installs then that could cause the running boot loader to be out of sync with your installed packages. I unpacked the source package whose version you cite, and it contains no matches for either "legacycfg" or "legacy_configfile". Regards, -- Colin Watson [[email protected]]
