[Bug 800910] Re: Kernel Upgrade forces removal of grub-efi due to missing recommends entry
I have an Asus e35m1-i deluxe and I cannot upgrade GRUB without seeing this happen in the update manager. For reference, when updating GRUB, I am asked where I want to install the update, to which I am offered to install it to /dev/sda which is my Samsung hard disk or to it's primary partition. I have tried both of them separately and then both together and still can't get it to work.

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed- natty' to 'verification-done-natty'. If verification is not done by one week from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

Any reason why this isn't getting fixed in Natty? I just managed to upgrade my machine into a paperweight, and would really like it to eventually boot at some point.

I reinstalled grub-efi on my desktop to fix it. I had to use the LiveCD. It wasn't fun. Is there a documented work around? Thanks.

Michael - cjwatson suggested this is likely an apt bug.
