Bug#814465: grub-pc: grub fails to boot "partition not recognized" on upgrade to 2.02~beta2-36

Package: grub-pc
Version: 2.02~beta2-36
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
Upgrading to grub 2.02~beta2-36 seemed successful, "Installation finished. No
error reported." followed by a listing of the kernels installed and then
"done".
But on reboot, instead of the usual grub menu, there was only a message
"Partition not recognized" and the grub-rescue prompt. Grub-rescue commands
like "insmod normal" failed with "Partition not recognized."
Booting the system from rescue CD and downgrading grub to 2.02~beta2-22+deb8u1
worked perfectly on reboot, so the problem may have been something in the new
version.
For what it's worth this is debian testing on a thinkpad edge with a Hitachi
Travelstar Z7K320 320GB (2.5") hard drive partitioned into an ext4 and a swap
partition.
Peace,
Joe Public
