--- Begin Message ---Package: grub-pc Version: 1.98~20100115-1 Severity: wishlist I recently got bit by the symptoms listed in #564093. Luckily I was able to fix it by copying the vmlinuz and initrd.img over to a Windows partition and use win32-loader to boot normally then run dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc to fix the issue. This Debian system is often booted over USB from various systems and sometimes from the internal SATA slot on my laptop. I chose /dev/sdb as the install device because the Debian hard drive is more often than not booting over USB. Unfortunately I was not booting over USB when I upgraded grub-pc, which caused the issue listed in #564093. It would be nice if I could specify a label or UUID of the /boot partition as the install device and grub would resolve that to the right device to install grub onto. This would make grub / Debian more useful for roaming USB stick situations. -- Package-specific info: debconf-settings for grub2 are: grub2/kfreebsd_cmdline: grub-pc/linux_cmdline: fillme * grub2/linux_cmdline: quiet loglevel=0 grub-pc/chainload_from_menu.lst: true grub-pc/kopt_extracted: false * grub-pc/install_devices: /dev/sdb grub-pc/postrm_purge_boot_grub: false grub2/kfreebsd_cmdline_default: quiet * grub2/linux_cmdline_default: *********************** BEGIN /proc/mounts /dev/mapper/chianamo-root / ext3 rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro,acl,data=ordered 0 0 /dev/sdb1 /boot ext2 rw,relatime,errors=continue 0 0 *********************** END /proc/mounts *********************** BEGIN /boot/grub/device.map (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 ### if [ -s $prefix/grubenv ]; then load_env fi set default="0" if [ ${prev_saved_entry} ]; then set saved_entry=${prev_saved_entry} save_env saved_entry set prev_saved_entry= save_env prev_saved_entry set boot_once=true fi function savedefault { if [ -z ${boot_once} ]; then saved_entry=${chosen} save_env saved_entry fi } insmod ext2 set root=(hd1,1) search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set c85c6a91-3d55-4775-879b-eb3f8cdfd925 if loadfont /grub/unicode.pf2 ; then set gfxmode=800x600 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 locale_dir=/boot/grub/locale set lang=en insmod gettext set timeout=5 ### END /etc/grub.d/00_header ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme ### insmod ext2 set root=(hd1,1) search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set c85c6a91-3d55-4775-879b-eb3f8cdfd925 insmod png if background_image /grub/moreblue-orbit-grub.png ; then set color_normal=black/black set color_highlight=magenta/black else set menu_color_normal=cyan/blue set menu_color_highlight=white/blue fi ### END /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/10_linux ### menuentry "Debian GNU/Linux, with Linux 2.6.32-trunk-amd64" { insmod ext2 set root=(hd1,1) search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set c85c6a91-3d55-4775-879b-eb3f8cdfd925 echo Loading Linux 2.6.32-trunk-amd64 ... linux //vmlinuz-2.6.32-trunk-amd64 root=/dev/mapper/chianamo-root ro quiet loglevel=0 echo Loading initial ramdisk ... initrd //initrd.img-2.6.32-trunk-amd64 } menuentry "Debian GNU/Linux, with Linux 2.6.32-trunk-amd64 (recovery mode)" { insmod ext2 set root=(hd1,1) search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set c85c6a91-3d55-4775-879b-eb3f8cdfd925 echo Loading Linux 2.6.32-trunk-amd64 ... linux //vmlinuz-2.6.32-trunk-amd64 root=/dev/mapper/chianamo-root ro single quiet loglevel=0 echo Loading initial ramdisk ... initrd //initrd.img-2.6.32-trunk-amd64 } ### END /etc/grub.d/10_linux ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/20_memtest86 ### menuentry "Memory test (memtest86)" { linux16 /memtest86.bin } ### END /etc/grub.d/20_memtest86 ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/20_memtest86+ ### menuentry "Memory test (memtest86+)" { insmod ext2 set root=(hd1,1) search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set c85c6a91-3d55-4775-879b-eb3f8cdfd925 linux16 /memtest86+.bin } menuentry "Memory test (memtest86+, serial console 115200)" { insmod ext2 set root=(hd1,1) search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set c85c6a91-3d55-4775-879b-eb3f8cdfd925 linux16 /memtest86+.bin console=ttyS0,115200n8 } ### END /etc/grub.d/20_memtest86+ ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ### ### END /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/40_custom ### # This file provides an easy way to add custom menu entries.

[ Colin Watson ] * Mention grub-rescue-usb.img in grub-rescue-pc description (closes: #586462). * Add instructions for using grub-rescue-usb.img (closes: #586463). * Remove /usr/lib/grub/mips-* from grub-common rather than the incorrect /usr/lib/grub/mipsel-*, so that it stops clashing with grub-yeeloong; add a versioned Replaces to grub-yeeloong just in case (closes: #586526). * Remove qemu-system build-dependency on hurd-i386, where it doesn't seem to exist. Disable tests if qemu-system-i386 isn't available. * Mark "upgrade-from-grub-legacy" paragraph in grub-pc/chainload_from_menu.lst as untranslatable. * Update Homepage field (thanks, Sedat Dilek). * On Linux, if /boot/grub/device.map exists on upgrade to this version, regenerate it to use stable device names in /dev/disk/by-id/. If it had more than one entry, then display a critical-priority debconf note (sorry, but it's better than silently breaking boot menu entries) advising people to check custom boot menu entries and update them if necessary (closes: #583271). * Use 'set -e' rather than '#! /bin/sh -e' or '#! /bin/bash -e', to avoid accidents when debugging with 'sh -x'. * Store grub-pc/install_devices as persistent device names under /dev/disk/by-id/ (closes: #554790). Migrate previous device names to that, with explicit confirmation in non-trivial cases to make sure we got the right ones. If the devices we were told to install to ever go away, ask again. (This is based on the implementation in Ubuntu.) * If grub-install fails during upgrade-from-grub-legacy, allow the user to try again with a different device, but failing that cancel the upgrade (closes: #587790). * Remove numbering from patch files. The order is now explicit in a quilt series file, and renumbering from time to time is tedious. .
