Bug#505905: Automatic detections seems counting wrong

[Debian]

Automatic detections seems counting wrong:
==========================================

Original file menu.lst that works perfect:

title		Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.26-1-amd64
unhide		(hd0,0)
unhide		(hd0,1)
root		(hd0,2)
kernel		/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-1-amd64 root=/dev/sda3 ro quiet
initrd		/boot/initrd.img-2.6.26-1-amd64
# savedefault


title		Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.26-1-amd64 (single-user mode)
unhide		(hd0,0)
unhide		(hd0,1)
root		(hd0,2)
kernel		/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-1-amd64 root=/dev/sda3 ro single
initrd		/boot/initrd.img-2.6.26-1-amd64
# savedefault


title		Windows XP Test P01
unhide		(hd0,0)
hide		(hd0,1)
root		(hd0,0)
# savedefault
makeactive
chainloader	+1


title		Windows XP Test P02
hide		(hd0,0)
unhide		(hd0,1)
root		(hd0,1)
# savedefault
makeactive
chainloader	+1

Generated grub.cfg:

grub 2 seems to count partitions beginning with 1 and not with 0 as in the version
before.
So the generating-script is working wrong!

But it doesn't help to alter the wrong entries manually.
Windows will not boot with grub 2!

And the question still remains how to realize the hide-mechanism ?
grub 2 is only more complicated to configure and seems not to run as easy and
perfect as the old version 0.96.

I set the good old version now on hold with
echo "grub hold" | dpkg --set-selections
