Package: grub2 Version: Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
Hi, Due to this bug, grub2 1.98~20091210-1 and the previous version were unable to boot correctlẏ. The problem came up when trying to load the linux module. When you try to insmod 'linux' that error pops up and you're completely unable to load a kernel image at all. Say you're at the grub rescue prompt, you try `insmod linux`, grub then says "the symbol "grub_printf_" not found" and exits with an error, making it so that you cannot boot at all. This is why I call it grave. I'm using beta1 right now because of this. Some of the also working ones aren't present in the repos anymore (I wish archive.debian.org was still up). -- Package-specific info: *********************** BEGIN /proc/mounts /dev/root / ext3 rw,relatime,user_xattr,acl,data=writeback 0 0 *********************** END /proc/mounts *********************** BEGIN /boot/grub/device.map (fd0) /dev/fd0 (hd0) /dev/sda (hd1) /dev/sdb *********************** END /boot/grub/device.map *********************** BEGIN /boot/grub/grub.cfg # # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE # # It is automatically generated by /usr/sbin/grub-mkconfig using templates # from /etc/grub.d and settings from /etc/default/grub # ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/00_header ### insmod chain insmod ext2 insmod ext3 set default=0 insmod ext2 set root=(hd0,2) search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 66a7fc76-5371-4266-b3e7-a4752b61f85f if loadfont /usr/share/grub/unicode.pf2 ; then set gfxmode=1024x768 insmod gfxterm insmod vbe if terminal_output gfxterm ; then true ; else # For backward compatibility with versions of terminal.mod that don't # understand terminal_output terminal gfxterm fi fi set timeout=15 ### END /etc/grub.d/00_header ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/10_linux ### menuentry "Debian GNU/Linux, Linux 2.6.31.5-acahkos" { insmod ext2 set root=(hd0,2) search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 66a7fc76-5371-4266-b3e7-a4752b61f85f linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31.5-acahkos root=/dev/sda2 ro video=radeonfb:1024x768-60,cmode:32 noapic nolapic nosplash } menuentry "Debian GNU/Linux, Linux 2.6.31.5-acahkos (recovery mode)" { insmod ext2 set root=(hd0,2) search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 66a7fc76-5371-4266-b3e7-a4752b61f85f linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31.5-acahkos root=/dev/sda2 ro single video=radeonfb:1024x768-60,cmode:32 noapic nolapic nosplash } ### END /etc/grub.d/10_linux ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/20_memtest86+ ### menuentry "Memory test (memtest86+)" { insmod ext2 set root=(hd0,2) search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 66a7fc76-5371-4266-b3e7-a4752b61f85f linux16 /boot/memtest86+.bin } menuentry "Memory test (memtest86+, serial console 115200)" { insmod ext2 set root=(hd0,2) search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 66a7fc76-5371-4266-b3e7-a4752b61f85f linux16 /boot/memtest86+.bin console=ttyS0,115200n8 } ### END /etc/grub.d/20_memtest86+ ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ### menuentry "Ubuntu 9.10, kernel 2.6.31-14-generic (on /dev/sdb6)" { insmod ext2 set root=(hd1,6) search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 4d7e6334-192c-4799-b232-116e98faab9b linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-14-generic root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/4d7e6334-192c-4799-b232-116e98faab9b ro lapic vga=788 nosplash initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.31-14-generic } menuentry "Ubuntu 9.10, kernel 2.6.31-14-generic (single-user) (on /dev/sdb6)" { insmod ext2 set root=(hd1,6) search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 4d7e6334-192c-4799-b232-116e98faab9b linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-14-generic root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/4d7e6334-192c-4799-b232-116e98faab9b ro lapic vga=788 single initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.31-14-generic } menuentry "Ubuntu 9.10, kernel 2.6.31-10-generic (on /dev/sdb6)" { insmod ext2 set root=(hd1,6) search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 4d7e6334-192c-4799-b232-116e98faab9b linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-10-generic root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/4d7e6334-192c-4799-b232-116e98faab9b ro lapic vga=788 nosplash initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.31-10-generic } menuentry "Ubuntu 9.10, kernel 2.6.31-10-generic (single-user) (on /dev/sdb6)" { insmod ext2 set root=(hd1,6) search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 4d7e6334-192c-4799-b232-116e98faab9b linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-10-generic root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/4d7e6334-192c-4799-b232-116e98faab9b ro lapic vga=788 single initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.31-10-generic } menuentry "Ubuntu 9.10, memtest86+ (on /dev/sdb6)" { insmod ext2 set root=(hd1,6) search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 4d7e6334-192c-4799-b232-116e98faab9b linux /boot/memtest86+.bin } ### END /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ### *********************** END /boot/grub/grub.cfg -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (995, 'unstable'), (990, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.31.5-acahkos Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages grub2 depends on: ii grub-pc 1.97~beta1-1 GRand Unified Bootloader, version grub2 recommends no packages. grub2 suggests no packages. -- debconf information: grub2/numbering_scheme_transition: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
