This regression also affects lucid and is blocking use of kernels in lucid updates such as linux-image-2.6.38-10-virtual. Natty's fixed grub rebuilds fine without changes under lucid without issue. Please fast track the fix in updates for lucid as well. I've put the rebuild in my PPA for now. FYI

I'm not denying our responsibilities to support GRUB Legacy in 10.04 LTS; merely commenting on why I hadn't noticed this bug before now. I agree with your comments but they aren't necessary. A point of information, though: 10.04 LTS uses GRUB 2 by default. Xen is of course an exception that stil

AFAIK, Ubuntu 10.04 LTS uses Grub 0.97. Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Server is, AFAIK, supported until *April 2015* So I think that means that in terms of Ubuntu's / Canonical's responsibilities, "legacy" Grub needs to be maintained until then at the earliest. I don't doubt that Grub 2 is the best thing sin

It looks like this is because CONFIG_XEN_PRIVILEGED_GUEST, which is used to check whether or not a kernel is a Xen kernel, is no longer an accurate determinant. update-grub needs to either find some other way of identifying Xen-only kernels, or this code should be dropped. ** Changed in: grub (Ub
