Package: grub
Version: 0.97-4
Severity: serious
Justification: 2
Hi,
I've just updated an AMD64 server with dist-upgrade to the latest grub
version and kernel 2.6.15.
The upgrade jumped from before 0.97-1 version to 0.97-3 version.
When calling update-grub, I receive :
---------------------------------------------------------------
serveurmeteo:/boot# update-grub
Searching for GRUB installation directory ... found: /boot/grub
---------------------------------------------------------------
When the kernel package was update, the postinst script did not succeed
because of the update-grub not working.
The problem should be in the update-grub script after the look for the
grub installation directory but before the testing for the existance of
the menu.lst file ... Probably in the device detection ...
In case of, here is my fstab :
serveurmeteo:/boot# cat /etc/fstab
---------------------------------------------------------------
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/sda1 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0
1
/dev/sda5 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/hda /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy0 auto rw,user,noauto 0 0
serveurmeteo:/boot#
---------------------------------------------------------------
The SATA drives are mounted in a RAID hardware system. So there won't be
interaction with RAID software as it seems to sometimes appear...
Any help is welcome.

I can confirm. It was a problem due to udev being installed on the
computer.
The /dev/sda1 was not existing.
Rebooting the computer fixed the problem.
Everything works fine now.
Best regards
