Hi,
* Felix Zielcke [EMAIL PROTECTED] [080720 21:27]:
Is this still an issue? Can you please try it with grub-pc
1.96+20080704-2 currently in testing/unstable
Seems to be no errors but it seems that /boot/boot/ is being completely
ignored. Please see the results of the install, linux-image reconfigure
and file listing under /boot below.

I think I will down grade to the old grub: I can currently afford the
time potentially needed to recover a possibly unbootable machine.
