Hi there,
I've just started using autotest and I'm trying to use the kernel module to
boot into a recently built kernel. It appears to be failing due to not being
able to install grubby.
I'm running this on Ubuntu 12.04 server. The stacktrace in client.0.DEBUG is
shown below.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Steve

It may be that you are running an unsupported version of grubby
