Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.97~beta2-2
Severity: normal
Dear grub-pc Maintainers,
just wanna note that it failed with linux-image-2.6.30-1-686 on unstable, but linux-image-2.6.29-2-686 worked smooth.
Don't know what changed in 2.6.30, maybe something about Resume (this is promting now) or LVM2.
The Error was regarding:
grub-pc: grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for /.
Leaving grub-pc half-configured and rendering it to have me booting it from hand via the grub-shell.
After booting linux-image-2.6.29-2-686 dpkg --configre was running without an error.
Best regards, Jan
