Bug#650415: Please check the grub.cfg for syntax changes on upgrade

[Martin Naughton]

Hello Goswin,
                    What is the exact problem? Grub should be backward
compatible with this syntax based on my configuration and i am using grub
1.99

In my menu entry i have without any root in the syntax.
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 2f31d97b-c633-4c76-9e3a-a50ab3f76e41

my whole example
menuentry 'Debian GNU/Linux, with Linux 2.6.32-5-686' --class debian
--class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os {
        insmod part_msdos
        insmod ext2
        set root='(hd0,msdos1)'
        search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set
2f31d97b-c633-4c76-9e3a-a50ab3f76e41
        echo    'Loading Linux 2.6.32-5-686 ...'
        linux   /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-686
root=UUID=2f31d97b-c633-4c76-9e3a-a50ab3f76e41 ro  quiet
        echo    'Loading initial ramdisk ...'
        initrd  /boot/initrd.img-2.6.32-5-686


can you please explain more or can we close the bug?
