Bug#344840: says "No error reported." on "Segmentation fault"

[Ryan Murray]

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

grub-install doesn't trap for errors like a segfault:

/sbin/grub-install: line 516:  5476 Segmentation fault      $grub_shell
--batch $no_floppy --device-map=$device_map  >$log_file <<EOF
root $root_drive
setup $force_lba --stage2=$grubdir/stage2 --prefix=$grub_prefix
$install_drive
quit
EOF

Installation finished. No error reported.
