Bug#497791: grub-pc: The bug has resurfaced in Sid, grub 1.96+20080724-14

[Andrew D. Clark]

Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.96+20080724-14
Followup-For: Bug #497791


The system is rendered unbootable with this configuration.  Removing the
"search --fs-uuid..." line, opening a grub shell and executing "insmod
linux" will allow the system to boot again.
