Bug#584595: grub-pc: package upgrade fails with "/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: no such disk.

[Christoph Anton Mitterer]

Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.98+20100602-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Hi.

When upgrading the package with the current version, I got the following:
Installing new version of config file /etc/grub.d/00_header ...
Setting up grub-pc (1.98+20100602-2) ...
Generating grub.cfg ...
/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: no such disk.
dpkg: error processing grub-pc (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 grub-pc


Any idas?

Cheers,
Chris.
