Package: grub2-common
Version: 2.02~beta2-36
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
i changed the timeout in /etc/default/grub and ran update-grub
* What was the outcome of this action?
# update-grub
Generating grub configuration file ...
Found background image: /usr/share/images/desktop-base/desktop-grub.png
Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-4.6.0-1-amd64
Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-4.6.0-1-amd64
grub-probe: error: cannot find a GRUB drive for /dev/sda1. Check your device.map.
done
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
there are 2 drives in the PC. /dev/sdb is this debian testing box. /dev/sda is
unrelated. it contains an ISO image of Antergros Linux, which i dd'd to it.
here's my workaround:
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=1M &
# update-grub

Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-4.6.0-1-amd64
Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-4.6.0-1-amd64
done
here's what /dev/sda looked like (before dd with /dev/zero):
# fdisk -l /dev/sda
Disk /dev/sda: 1.4 TiB, 1500300828160 bytes, 2930275055 sectors
