Bug#487328: prepare_grub_to_access_device not changeing to boot partition

[Bram Diederik]

Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.96+20080617-1

at the end of 00_header and /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme:
the code tells

# set the root variable back to what 10_linux expects
prepare_grub_to_access_device ${GRUB_DEVICE_BOOT}


But in update-grub_lib

  # If our target is the same partition that provides /boot, our $root
  # is already set to what we want, so no need to bother with UUIDs.
  if [ "x${device}" = "x${GRUB_DEVICE_BOOT}" ] ; then
    return
  fi

This is just added the latest release
${GRUB_DEVICE_BOOT} = ${GRUB_DEVICE_BOOT} so return don't search for
the boot device
