Bug#735932: [grub2-common] Computer does not boot

[Marco Righi]

Package: grub2-common
Version: 2.00-22
Severity: grave

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
This is not the computer that has the grub problem even if this computer
has the same source.list and the samepackage installed.

The computer that does not boot has several disk installed (SATA, PATA
and 1 external USB disk). The problem is born today after the
apt-getdist-upgrade command.

A disk contains /users directory (the main subdirectory are /users/home
and /users/root) and the other disk other imformations.

I have completely erased the disk containing the operating system and I
have installed from skratch linux again using the Debian Testing of
today (CD version - I have used only the first disk).

After the installation I have the same problem. Grub says

error: file not found

This is the worst problem of Debian after years of use, but it is grave!
Now I try to install again the system using lilo.

SystemRescueCD is not able to perform a chroot on the mounted disk that
contains the unbootable operating system.

I hope you resolve soon this problem.

Thanks in advance
Marco Righi

Please attach the file:

to the mail. I'd do it myself if the output wasn't too long to handle.

  Thank you!
