Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.98+20100617-1
Severity: grave
Tags: upstream
Justification: renders package unusable


Hi, after the last grub-pc and grub-common update my system was rendered 
unbootable. 
I originaly thought I had te same problem as described by other people on bug 
#586143,
however I couldn't solve my problem following the same steps as others. 
(grub-install and so)

When I try dpkg-reconfigure I get a lot of messages regarding locales unset and 
the need 
to manually give --modules.

GRUB can't be installed on LUKS yet. According to your /proc/mounts
tagesuhu-root was the device mounted at / and no device is mounted on
/boot which means that GRUB2 was attempting to install to LUKS. This is
supposed to fail as it's plainly not supported.
This means that your GRUB wasn't updated at all and so obviously will
have any bugs it had before.
The exact problem (unaligned pointer) could have been a manifestation of
one of few unrelated bugs which were fixed since then.
It's still possible that some unaligned pointer-type of bugs remain
hidden. If you find something of this kind please reopen the bug (or
better file a new one) but first be sure that /boot is a separate
unencrypted partition.
