Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: grub-pc
Hello,
I installed Ubuntu Maverick Desktop AMD 64 with Iso daily file from
07-23.
Burning of CD, start on Live CD, Ubuntu functional dynamics on Live CD
are well and work fine.
Installation on hard drive also succeeded.
But when I restart on HDD, it does not boot, just after bios I get a
black screen and this message :
error : the symbol 'grub_xputs' not found
grub rescue >
And nothing more...
Files seem to be well copied on hard drive (there are available with
Live CD).
Here is the copy of the /boot/grub/grub.cfg file :

/ is on sdb1 which has the UUID a702a4a5-8c6f-40ed-95bc-a031534919c9 and /home
is on sdb6, both ext4 drives.
Also, as I ran Gparted, I noticed that sda had a "boot" flag - and it
shouldn't : sda, sdb7 and sdc are ext4 partitions with datas, no other
OS).
So for the moment, I am unable to run Ubuntu Maverick and google tells
nothing about grub xputs... I do not know if this is a problem with my
material (hard drive, DVD, computer...) or Ubuntu.
Thanks in advance for your help.
