No, that's not what this message means. It means that the script didn't
find any installed boot loader at all!
If you are using GRUB 2 then you should have the 'grub-common' package
and a file called '/etc/default/grub' installed. Is this not the case?
Weird!
I've these packages installed:
grub 0.97-65
grub-common 1.99~rc1-4
grub-pc 1.99~rc1-4
And attached my /etc/default/grub.
I add that i wasn't able to make linux-base shows the message again:
tried with both dpkg-reconfigure and re-installing the package with
aptitude. To attach the message of the initial report i have copied and
pasted the text from linux-base.templates.
