Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.98+20100602-2
Severity: normal

I wasn't sure whether or not I should file a new bug for this issue. The
descrition of the orginal bug matches my behavior exactly but the issue is not
the same as orginal report.

I created this sid VM to test packages that I plan to build. I started with
Lenny and went through the upgrades. Currently, the machine is working fine
with chainloading grub-pc from grub-legacy.

After the failed upgrade-from-grub-legacy, I restored a snapshot of the VM.
The configuration you see below is actually prior the upgrade-from-grub-legacy.
If you request it, I can push the failed upgrade and generate a new report from 
a
chroot.

The exact issue is an "error 15: file not found" upon a reboot. This is prior
to grub menu appearing, which is an indication to me that grub2 was not properly
written to the MBR.

Unless virtualbox is a factor, it seems this setup would be very common.

Let me know if there is any more information you need. Also, sorry if the 
formatting
of this email is bad, I hadn't changed my editor on this machine yet and had to 
write
this in nano.
