Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.98+20100804-8
Severity: important
Update-grub uses grub-probe to get more information on
"/usr/share/grub/unicode.pf2".
This fails and as a result /boot/grub/grub.cfg is not created.
Workaround: add in /etc/default/grub
GRUB_FONT=/boot/grub/unicode.pf2
# update-grub

In /etc/grub.d/00_header the following line fails:
prepare_grub_to_access_device `${grub_probe} --target=device
"${GRUB_FONT_PATH}"`
# grub-probe --target=device "/usr/share/grub/unicode.pf2"
grub-probe: warn: Discarding improperly nested partition (hd3,msdos3,msdos1).
grub-probe: warn: Discarding improperly nested partition (hd3,msdos3,msdos1).
/dev/mapper/main-usr
Which is correct.
Looking at /usr/lib/grub/grub-mkconfig_lib the function
"prepare_grub_to_access_device ()"
has the following grub-probe commands:
abstraction="`${grub_probe} --device ${device} --target=abstraction`"
partmap="`${grub_probe} --device ${device} --target=partmap`"
fs="`${grub_probe} --device ${device} --target=fs`"
fs_uuid="`${grub_probe} --device ${device} --target=fs_uuid 2> /dev/null`"
with device=/dev/mapper/main-usr
grub-probe fails for target=abstraction and target=partmap:
# grub-probe --device /dev/mapper/main-usr --target=abstraction
