Bug#565685: workaround for easy recovery

PS: For an easy recovery in this special case it seems to be
sufficient to boot from CD, mount the reiserfs filesystem
with "notail", and recreate /boot/grub/grubenv, e.g.

	mount -o notail /dev/sda1 /mnt
	mv /mnt/boot/grub/grubenv /mnt/boot/grub/grubenv.bak
	cp -p /mnt/boot/grub/grubenv.bak /mnt/boot/grub/grubenv

Next edit /mnt/etc/fstab to make sure that the / partition is
mounted with "notail" on the next reboot. Umount /mnt and
reboot to verify.

Looking at #566538 I would suggest to close this bug report.

Harri
