Package: fai-server
Version: 3.4.7
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream patch
fai-cd tries to install grub2 to a USB device when told to do so, but fails.
This is because the line which find out the device to use obviously got
mixed up in the transition from GRUB to GRUB2. I am attaching a patch
to fix the problem.
