Package: upgrade-reports Severity: critical Tags: patch Justification: breaks the whole system
I speak French, it's a google translation. Following the annoncement of the relase of Debian 6.0 (Squeeze) as a new stable version, I change the sources.list to migrate from Lenny to Squeeze. Everything went fine until reboot. The new grub2 freeze before displaying the menu. After several attempts, I solved the problem by deleting two liney in /boot/grub/grub.cfg. Here is my file generated by update-grub command: # # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE # # It is automatically generated by grub-mkconfig using templates # from /etc/grub.d and settings from /etc/default/grub # ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/00_header ### insmod raid insmod mdraid if [ -s $prefix/grubenv ]; then load_env fi set default="0" if [ "${prev_saved_entry}" ]; then set saved_entry="${prev_saved_entry}" save_env saved_entry set prev_saved_entry= save_env prev_saved_entry set boot_once=true fi function savedefault { if [ -z "${boot_once}" ]; then saved_entry="${chosen}" save_env saved_entry fi } function load_video { insmod vbe insmod vga insmod video_bochs insmod video_cirrus } insmod raid insmod mdraid insmod part_msdos insmod ext2 set root='(md0)' search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 86fe1b93-e7b2-4c0a-a2f1-0b0c45172d1d if loadfont /usr/share/grub/unicode.pf2 ; then set gfxmode=640x480 load_video insmod gfxterm fi terminal_output gfxterm insmod raid insmod mdraid insmod part_msdos insmod ext2 set root='(md0)' search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 86fe1b93-e7b2-4c0a-a2f1-0b0c45172d1d set locale_dir=($root)/boot/grub/locale set lang=fr insmod gettext set timeout=5 ### END /etc/grub.d/00_header ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme ### insmod raid insmod mdraid insmod part_msdos insmod ext2 set root='(md0)' search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 86fe1b93-e7b2-4c0a-a2f1-0b0c45172d1d insmod png if background_image /usr/share/images/desktop-base/spacefun-grub.png; then set color_normal=light-gray/black set color_highlight=white/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_linux ### menuentry 'Debian GNU/Linux, avec Linux 2.6.32-5-686' --class debian --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os { insmod raid insmod mdraid insmod part_msdos insmod ext2 set root='(md0)' search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 86fe1b93-e7b2-4c0a-a2f1-0b0c45172d1d echo 'Chargement de Linux 2.6.32-5-686 ...' linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-686 root=UUID=86fe1b93-e7b2-4c0a- a2f1-0b0c45172d1d ro echo 'Chargement du disque mémoire initial ...' initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.32-5-686 } menuentry 'Debian GNU/Linux, avec Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (mode de dépannage)' --class debian --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os { insmod raid insmod mdraid insmod part_msdos insmod ext2 set root='(md0)' search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 86fe1b93-e7b2-4c0a-a2f1-0b0c45172d1d echo 'Chargement de Linux 2.6.32-5-686 ...' linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-686 root=UUID=86fe1b93-e7b2-4c0a- a2f1-0b0c45172d1d ro single echo 'Chargement du disque mémoire initial ...' initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.32-5-686 } menuentry 'Debian GNU/Linux, avec Linux 2.6.32-5-486' --class debian --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os { insmod raid insmod mdraid insmod part_msdos insmod ext2 set root='(md0)' search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 86fe1b93-e7b2-4c0a-a2f1-0b0c45172d1d echo 'Chargement de Linux 2.6.32-5-486 ...' linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-486 root=UUID=86fe1b93-e7b2-4c0a- a2f1-0b0c45172d1d ro echo 'Chargement du disque mémoire initial ...' initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.32-5-486 } menuentry 'Debian GNU/Linux, avec Linux 2.6.32-5-486 (mode de dépannage)' --class debian --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os { insmod raid insmod mdraid insmod part_msdos insmod ext2 set root='(md0)' search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 86fe1b93-e7b2-4c0a-a2f1-0b0c45172d1d echo 'Chargement de Linux 2.6.32-5-486 ...' linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-486 root=UUID=86fe1b93-e7b2-4c0a- a2f1-0b0c45172d1d ro single echo 'Chargement du disque mémoire initial ...' initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.32-5-486 } menuentry 'Debian GNU/Linux, avec Linux 2.6.26-2-686' --class debian --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os { insmod raid insmod mdraid insmod part_msdos insmod ext2 set root='(md0)' search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 86fe1b93-e7b2-4c0a-a2f1-0b0c45172d1d echo 'Chargement de Linux 2.6.26-2-686 ...' linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-2-686 root=UUID=86fe1b93-e7b2-4c0a- a2f1-0b0c45172d1d ro echo 'Chargement du disque mémoire initial ...' initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.26-2-686 } menuentry 'Debian GNU/Linux, avec Linux 2.6.26-2-686 (mode de dépannage)' --class debian --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os { insmod raid insmod mdraid insmod part_msdos insmod ext2 set root='(md0)' search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 86fe1b93-e7b2-4c0a-a2f1-0b0c45172d1d echo 'Chargement de Linux 2.6.26-2-686 ...' linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-2-686 root=UUID=86fe1b93-e7b2-4c0a- a2f1-0b0c45172d1d ro single echo 'Chargement du disque mémoire initial ...' initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.26-2-686 } ### END /etc/grub.d/10_linux ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen ### ### END /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ### ### END /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/40_custom ### # This file provides an easy way to add custom menu entries.
