Bug#341897: grub: update-grub has stopped finding kernels not in /boot

[Julian Gilbey]

Package: grub
Version: 0.95+cvs20040624-17
Severity: serious

Last time I used update-grub (a while ago, Jan 2005, I think!), it
automagically added these entries at the end (the repetitiveness I can
cope with, although it was buggy!)

But when I ran the testing version, these entries were not included in
my menu.lst.  Good job I noticed: for all that I dislike Windows, I
still have to use it for some work-related stuff :/

Also, it didn't detect Linux distros on other partitions.  What's up?

Thanks!
