Package: grub-common
Version: 1.96+20090317-1
Severity: important
When running the following command
grub-probe --target=device /
it returns the correct result, but produces a floating point exception
afterwards. This has as a consequence that I cannot install any new
kernels any more. Going back to the former version (1.96+20080724-16)
fixes the problem.
Kind regards,
Felix

From upstream:
"
Reading through backtrace I've noticed the cause:
#11 0x000000000041aab4 in grub_raid_scan_device (head_only=<value
optimized out>) at /home/dave/src/grub2/grub2-1.97+svn1996/disk/raid.c:641
#12 0x000000000041c14d in grub_fini_all () at grub_setup_init.c:73
In other words a rescan happened after some subsystems were finalised.
In particular lvm_fini was called after mdraid_fini. I've checked and
it's no longer the case. Closing
