This bug was fixed in the package grub2 - 1.97~beta3-1ubuntu1
---------------
grub2 (1.97~beta3-1ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low
* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
+ debian/default/grub:
- Adjust for default Ubuntu boot options.
- Use GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT option to set "quiet splash" for
default items only. These options won't be set in single user mode.
- Default to hiding the menu; holding down Shift at boot will show it.
+ debian/templates.in:
- Change default value of grub2/linux_cmdline_default to "quiet
splash".
+ debian/config.in, debian/postinst.in, debian/grub-pc.templates.in:
- Migrate timeout settings from menu.lst.
+ debian/grub.d/05_debian_theme:
- Set a monochromatic theme for Ubuntu.
+ debian/legacy/update-grub:
- Apply Ubuntu branding: title, recovery mode, quiet option, and tweak
how memtest86+ is displayed.
- Use UUIDs where appropriate.
+ debian/patches/03_ubuntu_grub_standards:
- Remove GNU/Linux from default string.
+ debian/patches/10_crashkernel.patch:
- Add crashkernel= options if kdump and makedumpfile are available.
+ debian/patches/951_quick_boot.diff:
- If other operating systems are installed, then automatically unhide
the menu.
- Otherwise, if GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT is 0, then use keystatus if
available to check whether Shift is pressed. If it is, show the
menu, otherwise boot immediately. If keystatus is not available,
then fall back to a short delay interruptible with Escape.
+ debian/patches/952_sleep_shift.diff:
- Allow Shift to interrupt 'sleep --interruptible'.
+ debian/patches/954_normal_quiet.diff:
- Don't display introductory message about line editing unless we're
actually offering a shell prompt. Don't clear the screen just before
booting if we never drew the menu in the first place.
+ debian/patches/955_really_quiet.diff:
- Remove some verbose messages printed before reading the
configuration file.
+ debian/patches/956_linux_quiet.diff:
- If the environment variable "quiet" is set to something other than
1, suppress progress messages as the kernel and initrd load. Set
this for non-recovery kernel menu entries.
+ debian/patches/957_savedefault.diff, debian/rules:
- Add GRUB_DEFAULT=saved, as well as grub-set-default and grub-reboot
utilities. Provides functionality essentially equivalent to GRUB
Legacy's savedefault.
+ debian/patches/959_loopback_root.diff:
- Keep the loopback file open so that subsequent changes to the "root"
environment variable don't affect it.
* debian/patches/960_test_invalid_fs.diff: Fix test crash if loopback
device does not contain a filesystem.
grub2 (1.97~beta3-1) unstable; urgency=high
* New upstream beta release.
- Make it more clear how to use /etc/grub.d/40_custom. (Closes: #545153)
- fix a serious memory corruption in the graphical subsystem.
(Closes: #545364, #544155, #544639, #544822, LP: #424503)
- patches/003_grub_probe_segfault.diff: Remove (merged).
* Change the watch file so upstream beta releases are recognized.
* Include /etc/default/grub in bug reports.
* Recommend os-prober (>= 1.32). (Closes: #491872)
* Change the gcc-multilib [sparc] build dependency to gcc-4.4-multilib
[sparc].
* patches/907_grub.cfg_400.diff: New patch to make grub.cfg again mode
444 if it does not contain a password line.
* Use `su' in the bug reporting script to read grub.cfg in case the user
is not allowed to read it.
* Readd grub-pc/kopt-extracted template.
