--- Begin Message ---Package: grub Version: 0.97-36 Severity: important Greetings. It seems that since upgrade to grub 0.97-36 on April 9 that I cannot install a new kernel becuase upgrade-grub fails. grub-probe is for some reason is seemingly unable to detect any of the individual partitions on the first hard disk, but *is* able to detect partitions on other hard disks. Strange. When using the prior version, grub 0.97-32, update-grub succeeds but grub-probe is still unable to detect the device.
