Package: grub-installer
Version: 1.24
Severity: normal
When experimenting with scripts to create persistent device names in debian-installer, I found that grub-installer creates an incorrect configuration if symlinks are used in /target/etc/fstab. 

For instance, with a fstab like this:
...
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-FUJITSU_MHV2100A-NTXYZ-part2 / ext3 defaults 0 0
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-FUJITSU_MHV2100A-NTXYZ-part1 /boot ext3 defaults 0 0
...
grub-installer will create a menu.lst with filepaths that include the /boot components even though it shouldn't. 

It would be nice if symlinks would be supported.

Closing as d-i now uses grub2.
