Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.98+20100720-1
Severity: important

Hello,

after upgrade to 1.98+20100720-1 grub-install fails:
	Setting up grub-pc (1.98+20100720-1) ...
	Installing new version of config file /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme ...
	/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: unknown filesystem.
	Auto-detection of a filesystem module failed.
	Please specify the module with the option `--modules' explicitly.
	/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: unknown filesystem.
	Auto-detection of a filesystem module failed.

	dpkg: error processing grub-pc (--configure):
	 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
	Errors were encountered while processing:
	 grub-pc

downgrading to 1.98+20100710-1 solves this:
	Setting up grub-pc (1.98+20100710-1) ...
	Installing new version of config file /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme ...
	Installation finished. No error reported.
	Installation finished. No error reported.
	Installation finished. No error reported.
	Generating grub.cfg ...

The /boot filesystem in question is ext2 on a 3-disk raid1 (md), the
raid component devices are partitions on 3 GPT-formatted disks.


regards
