 grub-installer - Install GRUB on a hard disk (udeb)
Closes: 269351
Changes: 
 grub-installer (1.08) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Joey Hess
     - Since lvdisplay may exit 0 even if run with a non-lvm device (such as
       /dev/discs/disc0/part0, which it knows isn't a lvm device name and
       aborts with an error message, but no failure code due to bug #250906),
       try to make the isinstallable check for /boot on lvm more robust by
       grepping the lvdisplay output for strings that indicate it really found
       a lvm volume.
     - Note that above fix is only needed for lvm1, not the lvm2 used by
       default in d-i.
   * Matt Kraai
     - Fix the spelling of "file system".
   * Colin Watson
     - DOS/Windows can't deal with booting from a non-first hard drive, so,
       if we're asked to install to hd* other than hd0, include suitable
       'map' commands when chain-loading DOS or Windows (closes: #269351).
