Installation finished. No error reported.
GRUB >= 2.00 has been unpacked but not yet configured.
grub-mkconfig will not work until the upgrade is complete.
It should run later as part of configuring the new GRUB packages.

Тhis kernel  works for а long time  and I never had any problems .
Yes, I have some non-standard repos, but for specific applications, not for
grub-pc.
