Package: grub-pc Version: 1.97~beta3-1 Severity: important dist-upgrade today tried to install grub-pc as a replacement for grub-legacy.
Installation went fine, then I was presented with the debconf dialog to chainload grub-pc from grub-legacy. No matter which option I choose in that dialog (yes or no), I get the following error: aschur...@neminis:~$ sudo dpkg --configure -a Setting up grub-pc (1.97~beta3-1) ... dpkg: error processing grub-pc (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 128 dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of grub: grub depends on grub-pc; however: Package grub-pc is not configured yet. dpkg: error processing grub (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Errors were encountered while processing: grub-pc grub I'm sorry I can't provide more information. I'm not familiar with either Perl or debconf and I don't have time to debug the scripts. -- Package-specific info: *********************** BEGIN /proc/mounts /dev/disk/by-uuid/6388def3-b3cd-4785-88c3-6b1ffbed6a9b / xfs rw,noatime,noquota 0 0 /dev/sda1 /boot ext2 rw,noatime,errors=continue 0 0 /dev/sdb3 /opt xfs rw,noatime,noquota 0 0 /dev/sdb4 /home xfs rw,noatime,noquota 0 0 /dev/sdb2 /media/STORAGE ext3 rw,noatime,errors=continue,data=writeback 0 0 /dev/sdc1 /media/external ext3 rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,noatime,errors=continue,data=writeback 0 0 *********************** END /proc/mounts *********************** BEGIN /boot/grub/device.map (fd0) /dev/fd0 #(hd0) /dev/hdb #(hd1) /dev/hdd (hd0) /dev/sda (hd1) /dev/sdb *********************** END /boot/grub/device.map -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (800, 'testing'), (550, 'stable'), (101, 'unstable'), (100, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.31-rc9 (PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages grub-pc depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.27 Debian configuration management sy ii grub-common 1.97~beta3-1 GRand Unified Bootloader, version ii libc6 2.9-25 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii ucf 3.0021 Update Configuration File: preserv grub-pc recommends no packages.
