Public bug reported: Binary package hint: grub2
Okay, for once I've got a bug in Ubuntu that actually is causing problems. Until a week or two ago, everything that mattered worked fine. However, now when I boot up, the system freezes on a flashing cursor before I even get to the boot menu. When I restart the computer, it then boots up fine (perhaps a little slower). It then crashes on the next boot, fine after, and so on. I assume this is a regression bug from an update, but I can't think which update caused this. Neither grub2 nor ureadahead have been updated for ages in 10.10. Help!
