Thanks for your patch. I'm afraid I hadn't noticed this at the time, but somebody asked about this independently on IRC yesterday and I fixed it a different way:
2010-11-23 Colin Watson <cjwat...@ubuntu.com> * util/deviceiter.c (compare_devices): If the by-id link for a device couldn't be resolved, fall back to sorting by the by-id link rather than segfaulting. Reported and tested by: Daniel Mierswa. This patch is in version 1.99~20101124-1ubuntu1, now in Natty. ** Changed in: grub2 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Released ** Changed in: grub2 (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Colin Watson (cjwatson) -- grub package update may crash when used with PnP wireless modems https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/657489 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
