Bug#606698: grub: failed re-installing GRUB in recovery mode

[Kejia]

Package: grub
Severity: important

Hi there,

My box can not start X yesterday, and I tried to show the GRUB menu which has `timeout=0'. But no keyboard worked. So I burned a latest Debian installation media and tried to fix in recovery mode. However, the Re-install GRUB item of the recovery menu failed working. Fortunately, the shell worked, and I updated GRUB conf there.

Cheers,
Kejia
