Description Andreas Kleen 2005-08-28 18:11:12 UTC
I had a custom menu entry in grub's menu list to boot another operating system

title other
        rootnoverify (hd0,3)
        makeactive
        chainloader +1

After the update there was just

title other
       (nothing) 

left. It shouldn't do that.

OK. The bug has 2 parts: 
1. rootnoverify is not handled correctly (that's why the section is totally 
crippled). Fixed, will be in Beta4. 
 
2. The bootloader library is always reinitialized while writing. This causes 
the loss of 'makeactive' command. I will prevent it from being reinitialized 
in installed system or during update.

The later is now in SVN as well, please, retest with Beta4.
