Hi Jordan and help-grub, sorry for being slow on the draw here; I've been occupied by some computer craziness (still am), partially including this:http://bbs.archbang.org/viewtopic.php?pid=15044
I went to the Savanah site for Grub and checked to see if the bug has already been reported. From hanging out at WINE, I know that duplicate bug reports get frowned upon. (Speaking of getting frowned upon, I almost forgot to hit the "plain text" button again. Phew!) I found bug #35550: http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=35550 I am uncertain whether #35550 reports the bug I am experiencing or not because I am curious if the bug reporter of bug #35550 used a special debugging compilation of Grub to report the error message. The Grub I'm using isn't compiled with any debugging options and is relatively "normal". I don't get any error messages when I enter "halt", but that might be because I don't have any debugging options in my compilation. In other words, at first glance, the bug of #35550 and the bug I am experiencing look different because in mine, there is no error printed to the screen, it just hangs, whereas in the reported one, an error is printed to the screen. But I am wondering if the reported one is having an error printed to the screen purely because it possibly is a debugging "version" of Grub. In that case they might be the same bug. So I am asking a Grub expert if that error is spit out only because it's a debugging compilation of Grub, and the bugs are the same, or if they really are different. Note: if #35550 _is_ describing "my" bug, then it needs to be re-opened.
