Package: grub-pc Version: 1.97~beta3-1 Severity: normal Hi,
when upgrading from grub-legacy to grub-pc, my default entry changed wrongly. From reading the post-install script and /usr/lib/grub-legacy/update-grub I understand that the idea is to, when chainloading is selected, set grub2 as the default option. It does this by forcing the default to 0 in update-grub. However, the chainloaded GRUB2 is not generally the first entry. It will be the first entry inside the automagically generated kernels list, but (as in my case) there might be entries above that (resulting in my grub booting windows by default). I guess the hard setting of default to 0 should be changed to something that counts the "title.*" lines before the begin of the kernel list? Gr.
