I did another kernel update and got the "Configuration file modified" dialog again and again the "maintainer's version" wants to change the hds from the proper hd(0,2) to hd(0,0).
I do have the broken groot in my config file (hd(0,0)) as left by the update, but there was no warning about conflicting settings. Changing the groot setting and running update-grub again fixes the file. I think that conflict between the configurations should lead by default to the file not being updated (or kernel removal should be stopped in prerm) and giving instructions to contact somebody about this, because risk of leaving the system in unbootable state is quite high. Of course if the boot device probing can be made idiot-proof this wouldn't be necessary. -- Updating to intrepid beta messes grub's menu.lst hds https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/277753 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
