Hash: SHA1
Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.96+20080216-1
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system
Using the newest grub-pc package, I ran update-grub and then
grub-install. Chainloading doesn't work by the way, because
it doesn't create the chainload option in legacy grub. Booting
straight to grub2 results in "Welcome to Grub" and an
unresponsive computer.
In a previous release the if statements created by 00_header
PROVIDED BY THE GRUB-PC PACKAGE were a problem, but removing
those if statements doesn't avoid the problem any more.
I have had this problem on two computers, one a desktop and
one a virtual machine.
