Bug#345931: grub 0.97 doesn't work on several machines
The first installation report states that /grub/stage1 exists. Is that indeed true? Checking if /boot/grub/stage1 exists... no Checking if /grub/stage1 exists... yes Checking if /grub/stage2 exists... yes Checking if /grub/e2fs_stage1_5 exists... yes
Bug#352207: grub-update does not work since update to 0.97-3
Hi again It doesn't fail on my machine, so either it is caused by the amd64 architecture or the raid device. It seems to fail around the command readlink -f /dev/sda1 Can you send the output of readlink -f /dev/sda1 and readlink -f /dev/sda1 ; echo $?

Bug#352207: grub-update does not work since update to 0.97-3
Well that defininatly explains why update-grub stops. It gets 1 as return value and therefore exits. It seems that the file /dev/sda1 does not exist or something goes wrong in readlink. Can you try ls -la /dev/sda1 in order to see what /dev/sda1 points to?

Can you reproduce the error when you run update-grub with sh update-grub? Can you send supply your menu.lst file, and try to run update-grub with sh -x update-grub and send the output of that file as well. Kristian
Bug#344767: This bug is fixed
Yes I believe that he bug is fixed in the 0.97-3 release. I just tried to install kernel 2.4.17-2-k7 and remove it again, and there was no problems with the scripts running. After that I purged the configuration, which also went without problems. I have tested with 2.6.15 as well, which also runs without problems. So I doubt that #349291, is related to this bug. When you try to purge your kernel, what command are you using and what happens? -- Best Regards Kristian Edlund GPG ID: 7DD7559F -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
