Bug Description
Binary package hint: mondo
When running sudo mondoarchive, it reports an error once it reaches the state where it builds the file catalog (or shortly after):
boekhold@
Initializing...
See /var/log/
WARNING: Module loop not found.
Checking sanity of your Linux distribution
Done.
---FATALERROR--- The de facto standard location for your boot loader's config file is /etc/grub.conf but I cannot find it there. What is wrong with your Linux distribution? Try 'ln -s /boot/grub/menu.lst /etc/grub.conf'...
If you require technical support, please contact the mailing list.

Log file: /var/log/
FYI, I have gzipped the log and saved it to /var/cache/
Mondo has aborted.
Execution run ended; result=254
Type 'less /var/log/
Seems like it's looking for the grub.conf file in the wrong location. The text above suggests making a symlink, but I've seen reports on the Net that that will fail during a restore because it expects /etc/grub.conf to be a real file, not a symlink.
Need to upgrade to mindi 2.0.7.5-1 / mondo 2.2.9.4-1
