grub-invaders installs without problem. Looking at the grub-install: It seems that os-prober (run by update-grub) starts a "grub-mount" tool that keeps on running, even though the update-grub already did an exit. ps -ef showed me a few of these: grub-mount /dev/mapper/vg00-root2 /var/lib/os-prober/mount If I kick out os-prober then the old memtest86+ postinst doesn't get stuck. So I would suggest to reassign this bug to os-prober. Version is 1.54. But I've got one question: Why does the postinst script run update-grub at all? Ain't this supposed to be triggered at the end of the whole apt-get install session instead?
