--- Begin Message ---Package: startupmanager Version: 1.9.10-3 Severity: important Tags: patch On a ppc box (iBook) having installed usplash and grub2, the program starts ok until the point that is doing pre-config checks. Suddely after displaying that window, the program is gone. Running it interactively it shows: grub-probe: error: /boot/grub/device.map:1: Bad device name Grub2 detected Usplash detected Splashy not detected File /boot/grub/grub.cfg does not exist. Which is correct, however it shouldn't make the program crash nor making impossible to configure usplash, which is present and correctly detected. By doing some debugging I've managed to get it work and display usplash configuration using the attached patch. However, it does not seem to work to get startupmanager properly handling usplash configuration on this use case. Since I'm not quite familiar with the code, I'm looking for ideas on where should we go next for fixing this. --- startupmanager-1.9.10.orig/bootconfig/grub.py +++ startupmanager-1.9.10/bootconfig/grub.py @@ -40,6 +40,7 @@ for path in [self.update_grub_command, self.grub_install_command, self.config_file, + self.readonly_config_file, self.header_config_file]: if not os.path.isfile(path): raise SystemExit('Fatal error.
