The unattended upgrade of grub failed (due to the fact that I had
replaced the hard drive and used dd to copy sector for sector from the
old one to the new, and that changed the identity of the hard drive).
Per the instructions in the unattended upgrade message, I ran the
following:

root@white:~# DEBIAN_FRONTEND=dialog dpkg --configure grub-pc
Setting up grub-pc (2.06-8) ...
grub-pc: Running grub-install ...

This machine is identical to the one on which I encountered this bug in
January. Both are Compulab Fit-PCs.

Does anybody read signatures any more?
