Package: grub
Version: 0.97-29
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system
When GRUB is installed on reiserfs3 partition that is not cleanly unmounted
the system fails to boot, because of the "savedefault" option, that is added
automatically to menu.lst by update-grub. Booting the system in this situation
while easy, requires both sufficient knowledge (to figure what the problem is
and use menu edit mode to remove the conflicting line) and physical access
to the console.
There is no documented way to disable "savedefault" line generation.
