I haven't yet managed to reproduce, though. I'm running grub2 '1.99-19',
I installed a kernel package, got no errors, rebooted, and the new
kernel was booted.

So it seems this doesn't hit every config, we'll have to figure out what
the busted configs have in common.

Can those experiencing issues with the new grub please take a look at
the bug, check their symptoms match the reporter's symptoms, and provide
as much info as possible? Thanks.
