Public bug reported:
Linux gabby 2.6.32-22-generic #33-Ubuntu SMP Wed Apr 28 13:28:05 UTC 2010
x86_64 GNU/Linux
Ubuntu 2.6.32-22.33-generic 2.6.32.11+drm33.2
During an upgrade from Karmic to Lucid on an nfsroot box, the kernel
install failed.
Initially the kernel wouldn't install because grub-pc wouldn't install
completely. It kept asking for a drive to install grub on, but as this
is a diskless machine, it wasn't able to succeed.
I then removed grub-pc (which is marked as recommended but not required), which
resulted in the kernel install failing with:
Could not find postinst hook script [update-grub]
I then created an empty shell script at /sbin/update-grub and everything
proceeded smoothly.
So as I understand it, either the kernel install shouldn't depend on
update-grub or grub-pc should be a required dependency (and should be
fixed to not require a disk to install to)
