Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.96+20080831-1
Severity: important
Hi,
I upgraded my system today and when rebooting later it didn't boot,
GRUB said "Unknown command initrd". After playing around a little I
found out that the "search --fs-uuid" was the one causing problems.
Removing that line allowed me to boot my system, but the error message
provided didn't give any clue about it, so most users with the search
--fs-uuid line could be bitten by this.
Either GRUB should say "the search line is wrong for XXX" or even
better, have no problems.
Anyway, what's the problem with the search line? ;)

Since above version we have a debconf prompt to run grub-install after a
package upgrade so in the future this shouldn't happen anymore.
