Bug#867804: cdrom: Stretch netinst CD installs grub config file incorrectly
Package: cdrom
Severity: normal
Tags: d-i
Dear Maintainer,
Debian-9.0.0-amd64-netinst.iso did not configure grub correctly. It created a configuration file in /boot/grub but
named it incorrectly (grub.cfg.new instead of grub.cfg). As a result, on rebooting, grub failed to reach a menu and
dropped to a grub shell prompt. I was able to complete the boot process by hand using grub shell commands.
'm no expert on grub, but as far as I can see, the file contents are correct and include all four of the linux systems
on my machine. Only the filename is wrong.
