Package: grub-common Version: 1.98-1 Severity: normal
I have the same problem as the original reporter. However I am not using LVM so the problem is unrelated and I see no reason to close this bug. Looking at /boot/grub/grub.cfg, the savedefault() function is never called. So if it really is responsible for saving the new default it's no surprise that this is not working. Apparently the reason is that save_default_entry() in /usr/lib/grub/grub-mkconfig_lib expects GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT=true instead of GRUB_DEFAULT=saved as the online grub documentation would seem to imply. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-3-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages grub-common depends on: ii base-files 5.1 Debian base system miscellaneous f ii dpkg 1.15.5.6 Debian package management system ii gettext-base 0.17-10 GNU Internationalization utilities ii install-info 4.13a.dfsg.1-5 Manage installed documentation in ii libc6 2.10.2-6 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libfreetype6 2.3.11-1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime Versions of packages grub-common recommends: ii os-prober 1.35 utility to detect other OSes on a Versions of packages grub-common suggests: pn grub-emu <none> (no description available) pn multiboot-doc <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
