Package: grub
Version: 0.97-36
Severity: normal
--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
When trying to install a new self-compiled kernel update-grub fails on
grub-probe. My grub install is in /boot/boot/grub. Although the script
finds the installation directory it tries to look for device.map in the
default location /boot/grub
I added in "-m ${device_map}" on the 2 grub-probe lines (one in
find_device() and one in convert()) and the installation went ok.
Output from installation below.
Cheers,
D
