Bug#586143: grub-pc 1.98+20100614-* not bootable

[Jeffrey G Thomas]

Echoing Guido, I had the same issue with both of these:
> grub-pc 1.98+20100614-1
> grub-pc 1.98+20100614-2

And my system won't boot anymore. Grub reads:

> Unaligned pointer 0x4c194c76 - press any key

After pressing a key it says "No operation system found"
I don't even have a chance to edit the Grub boot line :(

Downgrading to 1.98 (testing) and running:
> grub-setup /dev/sda
makes it all work.

Suggestions to run:
> 'grub-install /dev/sda' 
fails with:
> '/usr/bin/grub-mkimage: Not found.'
