Note that this was a bug. It was fixed in: 2008-08-01 Robert Millan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * util/grub.d/10_linux.in: Use prepare_grub_to_access_device() from within menuentries, not before them. util/grub.d/10_hurd.in: Likewise. Not sure if it made it to Lenny. -- Robert Millan The DRM opt-in fallacy: "Your data belongs to us. We will decide when (and how) you may access your data; but nobody's threatening your freedom: we still allow you to remove your data and not access it at all." -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
