Package: grub
Version: 0.95+cvs20040624-13
Severity: important

after recently upgrading grub and re-installing into /boot/grub, at
initial boot, when i tried to use the down arrow to select an alternate
menu item, it wouldn't move past the second menu item, and the up arrow
wouldn't work either.

i could still get to the grub command prompt, or hit enter to boot the
selected menu item- so the keyboard wasn't entirely locked up.

quirky.

live well,
