To all the questions.

I reinstalled grub2. The same problem persists.
I have run update-grub2 (a stub that runs grub-mkconfig for grub2) several times with no improvement. i also ran grub-mkconfig directly. Same results. See listing below. I've had Wheezy on these systems for a long time. I didn't check the wifes system for a long time and there was a flurry of changes shortly before Wheezy went stable. I think that is why there where so many updates. I have also checked /etc/apt/source.list to make sure. Everything is set to stable at this point.

    root@xxxxxx:/etc/apt# grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

I hope this answers everyone's questions.

To all,

I reinstalled grub2 with "Aptitude reinstall grub2". The installation seemed to work fine. I updated grub afterward.

I use ext4 with the usual - MBR, extended, swap - structure on a single 500 GB disk. The fstab is the same as I have been using since I built the systems and is right out of the man page. I also have 2 identical systems. The other works fine. I have checked the grub.cnf and other files against the good system and have not been able to find any differences.

I'm really up against it at this point. If someone doesn't come up with a fix soon I am going to start putting "echo" statements into the grub files to see if I can find the error. A very messy process.
