Bug#586143: doesn't load grub: unaligned pointer 0x4c19a146

[Brenda J. Butler]

With grub-pc 1.98+20100614-2,
I had the same failure, with unaligned pointer 0x4c19a146.

This occurred before any other output to the screen by
grub.  No menu, no shell, nothing.

downgraded to
grub-pc 1.98+20100602-2 (and grub-common 1.98+20100602-2)

and the problem went away.

The problem occurred after an upgrade from
grub-pc (and grub-common) 1.98+20100602-2 to 1.98+20100614-2.

This was on a Thinkpad T43.
