Package: grub-pc Version: 1.96+20080429-1 Severity: normal
When I set the grub linux cmd line through debconf the post.install script fails with the following error. The install script fails to pull my old linux cmd line from menu.lst, so I typed it in. my linxu cmd line is "root=/dev/hdc1 ro" sed: -e expression #1, char 40: unknown option to `s' + db_get grub-pc/linux_cmdline + _db_cmd 'GET grub-pc/linux_cmdline' + IFS=' ' + printf '%s\n' 'GET grub-pc/linux_cmdline' + IFS=' ' + read -r _db_internal_line + RET='root=/dev/hdc1 ro' + case ${_db_internal_line%%[ ]*} in + return 0 + '[' 'root=/dev/hdc1 ro' == fillme ']' + '[' 'root=/dev/hdc1 ro' '!=' '' ']' + sed -i /etc/default/grub -e 's/^\(GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX\)=.*/\1="root=/dev/hdc1 ro"/g' sed: -e expression #1, char 40: unknown option to `s' + db_set grub-pc/linux_cmdline '' + _db_cmd 'SET grub-pc/linux_cmdline' '' + IFS=' ' + printf '%s\n' 'SET grub-pc/linux_cmdline ' + IFS=' -- Package-specific info: *********************** BEGIN /proc/mounts /dev/hdc1 / reiserfs rw 0 0 /dev/hdc1 /dev/.static/dev reiserfs rw 0 0 *********************** END /proc/mounts *********************** BEGIN /boot/grub/device.map (hd0) /dev/hda (hd1) /dev/hdc *********************** END /boot/grub/device.map *********************** BEGIN /boot/grub/grub.cfg # # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE # # It is automatically generated by /usr/sbin/update-grub using templates # from /etc/grub.d and settings from /etc/default/grub # ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/00_header ### set default=0 set timeout=5 set root=(hd1,1) if font (hd1,1)/usr/share/grub/unicode.pff ; then set gfxmode=640x480 insmod gfxterm insmod vbe terminal gfxterm fi ### END /etc/grub.d/00_header ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme ### insmod png if background_image (hd1,1)/usr/share/images/desktop-base/debian-blueish-wallpaper-640x480.png ; then set color_normal=black/black set color_highlight=magenta/black else set menu_color_normal=cyan/blue set menu_color_highlight=white/blue fi ### END /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/10_hurd ### ### END /etc/grub.d/10_hurd ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/10_linux ### menuentry "Debian GNU/Linux, linux 2.6.25-1-686" { linux (hd1,1)/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.25-1-686 root=/dev/hdc1 ro initrd (hd1,1)/boot/initrd.img-2.6.25-1-686 } menuentry "Debian GNU/Linux, linux 2.6.25-1-686 (single-user mode)" { linux (hd1,1)/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.25-1-686 root=/dev/hdc1 ro single initrd (hd1,1)/boot/initrd.img-2.6.25-1-686 } menuentry "Debian GNU/Linux, linux 2.6.24-1-686" { linux (hd1,1)/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-1-686 root=/dev/hdc1 ro initrd (hd1,1)/boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-1-686 } menuentry "Debian GNU/Linux, linux 2.6.24-1-686 (single-user mode)" { linux (hd1,1)/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-1-686 root=/dev/hdc1 ro single initrd (hd1,1)/boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-1-686 } ### END /etc/grub.d/10_linux ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ### ### END /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ### *********************** END /boot/grub/grub.cfg -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages grub-pc depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.21 Debian configuration management sy ii grub-common 1.96+20080429-1 GRand Unified Bootloader, version ii libc6 2.7-10 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii liblzo1 1.08-3 data compression library (old vers ii libncurses5 5.6+20080503-1 Shared libraries for terminal hand grub-pc recommends no packages. -- debconf information: * grub-pc/linux_cmdline: * grub-pc/chainload_from_menu.lst: true -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
