This seems to be inconsistent with your previous report. Are you completely sure that with your /boot/grub/device.map being: (fd0) /dev/fd0 (hd0) /dev/vda and grub-common being the pristine version, grub-probe failed and (in consequence) regenerated your device.map? -- Robert Millan <GPLv2> I know my rights; I want my phone call! <DRM> What use is a phone call… if you are unable to speak?
