Thank you for trying Bhavani,
Can you try the the 1.96+20080831-1 from experimental grub2 (1.96+20080831-1) experimental; urgency=low
* New SVN snapshot.
- patches/00_fix_double_prefix.diff: Remove (merged). (Closes: #487565)
- patches/00_getline.diff: Remove (merged). (Closes: #493289)
- Handle errors in RAID/LVM scan routine (rather than letting the upper
layer cope with them). (Closes: #494501, #495049)
- patches/901_linux_coreboot.diff: Remove (replaced).
- Add support for GFXMODE variable (Closes: #493106)
- Skips /dev/.* in grub-probe. (Closes: #486624)
- RAID code has various fixes. (Closes: #496573)
- Buffered file read is now used to read the background image faster.
(Closes: #490584)
* We are already using LZMA, because upstream includes it's own lzma encoder,
so drop completely the liblzo handling in control and rules files.
[ Felix Zielcke ]
* Remove the 1.95 partition numbering transition debconf warning
from grub2 package and removed it from all languages (*.po).
(Closes: #493744)
* Add a comment for the new GFXMODE in default/grub.
* debian/rules:
- Remove 2 ./configure options which it didn't understand.
- New grub-mkelfimage belongs to grub-common.
* debian/control:
- Change debhelper compat level to 7 and build depend on it >= 7.
- Remove ${misc:Depend} dependency on all packages except grub-pc which is
the only one using debconf.
- Replace deprecated ${Source-Version} with ${source:Version} for <<
dependency and with ${build:Version} for = ones.
- Remove versioned dependency of Build-Depends patchutils and cdbs,
because etch has newer versions then the one used.
- Remove dpkg-dev completely from Build-Depends because it's build-essentail and a non versioned dependency results in a lintian error.
- Remove Conflict/Replaces pupa, it has been removed from Debian 2004.
- Change build-dependency of unifont-bin to unifont (>= 1:5.1.20080820),
it's the new package containing unifont.hex and that version to avoid
licensing problems (Closes: #496061)
- Remove Jason Thomas from Uploaders with his permission.
* Preserve arguments in update-grub2 stub. (Closes: #496610)
[ Updated translations ]
* Japanese (ja.po) by Hideki Yamane (Closes: #493347)
[ Robert Millan ]
* Move a few files to grub-common and remove them from the arch-
specific packages.
* patches/02_old_linux_version_comparison.diff: Replace with ...
* patches/901_dpkg_version_comparison.diff: ... this.
Use dpkg --compare-versions in update-grub. (Closes: #494158)
* patches/03_disable_floppies.diff: Free .drive struct member when skipping
floppy drives. (Closes: #496040)
* patches/902_boot_blocklist_hack.diff: Support separate /boot when using
blocklists. (Closes: #496820, #489287, #494589)
