Package: grub Version: 0.97-47 Severity: minor Severity set to minor since it's an unusual configuration and I've just apt-get upgraded to lenny.
Basically update-grub fails (silently) so adding/removing kernels also fails. There are a few problems here: a) Silent failure ripley:/boot/grub# update-grub Searching for GRUB installation directory ... found: /boot/grub ripley:/boot/grub# echo $? 1 It should really warn here! grub-probe has stderr sent to /dev/null :-( b) The reason it is failing is since this box was upgraded a while ago but grub wasn't updated - and so /boot/grub/device.map is outdated. It would be nice if it caught this error and suggested a fix. Even better if it tried the fix. The attached patch does both of these things. NB: I didn't keep the original file so the two original redirection lines might have whitespace differences. This may also help with #499176.
