/etc/kernel/postinst.d/x-grub-legacy-ec2:
debconf: unable to initialize frontend: Dialog

Searching for GRUB installation directory ... found: /boot/grub
Searching for default file ... found: /boot/grub/default
Testing for an existing GRUB menu.lst file ... found: /boot/grub/menu.lst
Searching for splash image ... none found, skipping ...
A new version of /boot/grub/menu.lst is available, but the version installed currently has been locally modified.

  1. install the package maintainer's version 3. show the differences between the versions 5. show a 3-way difference between available versions 7. start a new shell to examine the situation
  2. keep the local version currently installed 4. show a side-by-side difference between the versions 6. do a 3-way merge between available versions (experimental)

What would you like to do about menu.lst?
