Package: linux-image-2.6.18-4-xen-686
Version: 2.6.18.dfsg.1-10~bpo.1
Severity: wishlist

Hello

Users of sarge+backports.org suffer the problem that their GRUB does not
know how to load the hypervisor module. Please add the following to give
them a hint: 	Conflict: grub (<< 0.97-16)

(This could, of course, be done by the backporters, too, but it would be
easier and AFAIK without drawbacks if be done by you.)

bye,

-christian-

Since the kernel bug tracking system is currently overloaded, I'm
going to go ahead and close this. This bug will still be found in
google, etc, since this is in public mailing list archives now.
