Package: grub
Version: 0.97-2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
In the script update-grub there is the location of the file menu.lst
hardcoded in line 752 as /boot/grub/menu.lst. This leads to problems
when /boot is on an extra partition because then the location of
menu.lst becomes /boot/boot/grub/menu.lst. The following patch could
help you resolving this:
752c752
< echo "found but preserving previous setting: $(grep '^splashimage=' /boot/grub/menu.lst)"
---
> echo "found but preserving previous setting: $(grep '^splashimage=' ${grub_dir}/menu.lst)"
Regards, Ole
