Sorry, I think it was more a result of missing the grub-pc-bin rather than the double slash ending up in the expanded path, though I still think it would be a code improvement to remove the trailing slash on a variable set to a directory.
For what it's worth, my specific error was this prompt when initiating grub stage2: error: file '/grub/i386-pc/normal.mod' not found. grub rescue> The i386 modules were not being included in the grub core.img because they didn't exist or weren't found...I think it was actually because they didn't exist at all in /usr/lib/grub, not because of the double slash. -----Original Message----- From: Thomas Lange [mailto:la...@informatik.uni-koeln.de] Sent: Thursday, December 04, 2014 5:41 PM To: Kevin Newman; 772...@bugs.debian.org Subject: Re: Bug#772085: fai-cd creates a grub2 image that may not boot due to missing modules >>>>> On Thu, 4 Dec 2014 23:08:28 +0000, Kevin Newman <knew...@peak6.com> said: > When /usr/sbin/fai-cd is creating a bootable FAI Cd, it creates its GRUB core.img (/boot/grub/core.img) while referencing a mangled path > for the modules.

I cannot confirm this error, since it works for me. Can you please specify, in which situation this error occurs? Any error real message available? -- regards Thomas ______________________________________________ See http://www.peak6.com/email_disclaimer/ for terms and conditions related to this email -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
