Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.96+20080724-14
Followup-For: Bug #497791
This bug is happenning on another machine, not this one. It's an amd64
machine. initrd and linux both appear to be present when i cat
command.lst. Adding 'insmod linux' in various places gives:
syntax error
Incorrect command
error: You need to load the kernel first.
Adding "insmod echo" and "echo $read" shows that search didn't change
$root. Even after removing the search line, I still see:
syntax error
Incorrect command
before the kernel decompresses and boots.
Is it possible that grub-install didn't run on upgrade?
Also, grub2 is not installed. Only grub-pc and grub-common.
