I have similar issue on Ubuntu 12.04 when running an "apt-get dist-
upgrade"...

At some point iI get an output very similar to the reproduced:

root@dcmilphlum173:~# grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
Generating grub.cfg ...
Warning: Setting GRUB_TIMEOUT to a non-zero value when GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT is 
set is no longer supported.

The below 4 errors do not occur without the 2 snapshots that I created
before running "apt-get dist-upgrade".

Could this be related to the above issue?
I see that the issue from this thread was solved in grub2 (2.02~beta2-9), but 
the latest version  available to precise is the one I have (see below)

root@dcmilphlum173:~# dpkg -l |grep grub
ii  grub-common                                   1.99-21ubuntu3.19             
                  GRand Unified Bootloader (common files)
ii  grub-gfxpayload-lists                         0.6                           
                  GRUB gfxpayload blacklist
ii  grub-pc                                       1.99-21ubuntu3.19

                  GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (PC/BIOS binaries)
ii  grub2-common                                  1.99-21ubuntu3.19             
                  GRand Unified Bootloader (common files for version 2)

I currently haven't seen any crash or boot failure because of these
issues yet, but still I'd like to solve or get around this issue...
