Bug#688549: Now a new problem...

[Dean Loros]

I found that I did not have ia32-libs installed..installed the libs & grub
was still complaining about this:


[sudo] password for dean:
GRUB >= 2.00 has been unpacked but not yet configured.
grub-mkconfig will not work until the upgrade is complete.
It should run later as part of configuring the new GRUB packages.

I found that I did not have all parts of grub in /boot/grub--only in
/boot/grub/i386-pc ...My system is 64bit.
I copied all the missing parts into my /boot/grub & left the duplicates in
/boot/grub/i386--the system boots, but stills gives the above error with
the sudo update-grub or sudo grub-mkconfig commands.

I am reverting back to 1.99-23 again & await more information--here is the
log:
