Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.98+20100804-2
Severity: critical
Tags: d-i
Justification: breaks the whole system
This problem originally happened when upgrading an old Squeeze installation.
I do not know how long the problem has existed. Doing a fresh install from the
very latest testing images does not solve the problem.
On an Acer Aspire One AO751h, GRUB fails to boot. It hangs at "Welcome to
GRUB!"
and a Ctl-Alt-Del does not reboot the machine. I have tried multiple
installation
methods and partitioning schemes with no luck.

Changes:
grub2 (1.99~rc1-2) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Merge 1.98+20100804-13 and 1.98+20100804-14, updating translations:
- Kazakh (Baurzhan Muftakhidinov / Timur Birsh).
* mkconfig_skip_dmcrypt.patch: Refer to GRUB_PRELOAD_MODULES rather than
suggesting people write a /etc/grub.d/01_modules script (thanks, Jordan
Uggla).
* Handle empty dir passed to grub_find_root_device_from_mountinfo; fixes
grub-mkrelpath on btrfs subvolumes (LP: #712029).
* Add rootflags=subvol=<name> if / is on a btrfs subvolume (LP: #712029).
* Upload to unstable.
.
grub2 (1.99~rc1-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
[ Colin Watson ]
* New upstream release candidate.
.
[ Alexander Kurtz ]
* 05_debian_theme:
- If we find a background image and no colours were specified, use
upstream defaults for color_normal and color_highlight rather than
setting color_normal to black/black.
- Make the code more readable by replacing code for handling
alternatives.
- Make the code for searching for pictures in /boot/grub more readable
and robust (for example against newlines in the filename).
- Don't try the other alternatives when $GRUB_BACKGROUND is set; you can
now add GRUB_BACKGROUND= to /etc/default/grub to force no background
image (closes: #608263).
.
grub2 (1.99~20110112-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* New Bazaar snapshot.
- Disable ieee1275_fb on sparc (closes: #560823).
- Fix pf2 font generation on big-endian platforms (closes: #609818).
* branch_butter.patch: Resolve the device returned by
grub_find_root_device_from_mountinfo or find_root_device_from_libzfs
using grub_find_device (closes: #609590, #609814, LP: #700147).
.
grub2 (1.99~20110111-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* New Bazaar snapshot.
- Don't check amount of low memory, as reportedly INT 12h can be broken
and if low memory is too low we wouldn't have gotten into
grub_machine_init anyway (closes: #588293, LP: #513528).
- Submenu default support (LP: #691878).
- Fix optimisation-dependent grub-mklayout crash (closes: #609584).
* branch_butter.patch: Don't free an uninitialised pointer if /proc is
unmounted (LP: #697493).
* Add a po/LINGUAS file listing the translations we've synced from the TP
(closes: #609671).
.
grub2 (1.99~20110106-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* New Bazaar snapshot.
- Check that named RAID array devices exist before using them (closes:
#606035).
- Clear terminfo output on initialisation (closes: #569678).
- Fix grub-probe when btrfs is on / without a separate /boot.
.
grub2 (1.99~20110104-2) experimental; urgency=low
.
* Support long command lines as per the 2.06 Linux boot protocol, from the
upstream 'longlinuxcmd' branch.
* Add a background_color command, from the upstream 'parse-color' branch.
* Update branch_devmapper.patch, adding a #include to fix a build failure
on Ubuntu amd64.
* When embedding the core image in a post-MBR gap, check for and avoid
sectors matching any of a number of known signatures, from the upstream
'embed-sectors' branch.
.
grub2 (1.99~20110104-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* New Bazaar snapshot.
- Don't emit drivemap directive for Windows Server 2008 (closes:
#607687).
- Don't add spurious RAID array members (closes: #605357).
- Improve presentation of Xen menu entries (closes: #607867).
- Fix PCI probing hangs by skipping remaining functions on devices that
do not implement function 0 (closes: #594967).
- Fix typo in descriptions of extract_legacy_entries_source and
extract_legacy_entries_configfile (LP: #696721).
* Merge 1.98+20100804-12:
- Use semicolons rather than commas to separate size from model in
debconf disk and partition descriptions.
* Add full btrfs support, from the upstream 'butter' branch.
* Support partitioned loop devices and improve devmapper support, from the
upstream 'devmapper' branch.
* Add squashfs 4 support, from the upstream 'squash' branch.
.
grub2 (1.99~20101221-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* New Bazaar snapshot.
- Initialise next pointer when creating multiboot module (closes:
#605567).
- Fix gettext quoting to work with bash as /bin/sh, and make echo
UTF-8-clean so that (at least) Catalan boot messages are displayed
properly (closes: #605615).
- Fix use of uninitialised memory in Reed-Solomon recovery code
(LP: #686705).
.
grub2 (1.99~20101210-2) experimental; urgency=low
.
* Automatically remove MD devices from device.map on upgrade, since the
BIOS cannot read from these and including them in device.map will break
GRUB's ability to read from such devices (LP: #690030).
* Merge 1.98+20100804-9, 1.98+20100804-10, and 1.98+20100804-11:
- Apply debconf template review by debian-l10n-english and mark several
more strings for translation, thanks to David Prévot and Justin B Rye.
- Incorporate rewritten 05_debian_theme by Alexander Kurtz, which works
when /usr is inaccessible by GRUB.
.
grub2 (1.99~20101210-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* New Bazaar snapshot.
- ZFS moved into grub-core.
- Extend gettext to fall back from ll_CC to ll, and set lang to include
country part by default so that Chinese works (LP: #686788).
* Remove grub-mknetdir from grub-emu.
* Exit silently from zz-update-grub kernel hook if update-grub does not
exist (e.g. if grub-pc has been removed but not purged; closes:
#606184).
.
grub2 (1.99~20101126-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* New Bazaar snapshot (mipsel build fix, LVM-on-RAID probing fix).
* Fix comma-separation in handling of grub-pc/install_devices.
.
grub2 (1.99~20101124-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* New Bazaar snapshot (command priorities, build fixes, grub-mkdevicemap
segfault).
* Don't try to build grub-efi-amd64 on kfreebsd-i386 or hurd-i386
(requires gcc-4.4-multilib).
.
grub2 (1.99~20101123-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* New Bazaar snapshot (build fixes).
* Build-depend on qemu-utils and parted on non-Hurd architectures.
* qemu_img_exists.patch: Skip partmap test if qemu-img doesn't exist (as
is the case on the Hurd).
* Make grub-efi-ia32 and grub-efi-amd64 depend on efibootmgr so that
grub-install works properly.
* Upgrade the installed core image when upgrading grub-efi-ia32 or
grub-efi-amd64, although only if /boot/efi/EFI/<id> (where <id> is an
identifier based on GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR, e.g. 'debian') already exists.
* Re-expand a couple of dpkg architecture wildcards to exclude certain
special cases: gcc-4.4-multilib is not available on kfreebsd-i386 or
hurd-i386, and qemu-system is not available on hurd-i386.
.
grub2 (1.99~20101122-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
[ Colin Watson ]
* New Bazaar snapshot. Too many changes to list in full, but some of the
more user-visible ones are as follows:
- GRUB script:
+ Function parameters, "break", "continue", "shift", "setparams",
"return", and "!".
+ "export" command supports multiple variable names.
+ Multi-line quoted strings support.
+ Wildcard expansion.
- sendkey support.
- USB hotunplugging and USB serial support.
- Rename CD-ROM to cd on BIOS.
- Add new --boot-directory option to grub-install, grub-reboot, and
grub-set-default; the old --root-directory option is still accepted
but was often confusing.
- Basic btrfs detection/UUID support (but no file reading yet).
- bash-completion for utilities.
- If a device is listed in device.map, always assume that it is
BIOS-visible rather than using extra layers such as LVM or RAID.
- Add grub-mknetdir script (closes: #550658).
- Remove deprecated "root" command.
- Handle RAID devices containing virtio components.
- GRUB Legacy configuration file support (via grub-menulst2cfg).
- Keyboard layout support (via grub-mklayout and grub-kbdcomp).
- Check generated grub.cfg for syntax errors before saving.
- Pause execution for at most ten seconds if any errors are displayed,
so that the user has a chance to see them.
- Support submenus.
- Write embedding zone using Reed-Solomon, so that it's robust against
being partially overwritten (closes: #550702, #591416, #593347).
- GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_RECOVERY and GRUB_DISABLE_NETBSD_RECOVERY merged
into a single GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY variable.
- Fix loader memory allocation failure (closes: #551627).
- Don't call savedefault on recovery entries (closes: #589325).
- Support triple-indirect blocks on ext2 (closes: #543924).
- Recognise DDF1 fake RAID (closes: #603354).
.
[ Robert Millan ]
* Use dpkg architecture wildcards.
.
[ Updated translations ]
* Slovenian (Vanja Cvelbar). Closes: #604003
* Dzongkha (dawa pemo via Tenzin Dendup). Closes: #604102
