How can "aptitute show" tell you what is the default grub to be installed
in lenny? :-P
I also have Grub legacy installed in Lenny (and also in Squeeze) but IIRC
(I'm speaking from memory, it was a year ago when I installed Lenny), it
was _my_ decision. I dunno for the auto-installer because I chose the
"expert" install and I remember that the bootloader screen asked two main
questions, a) what grub to install ("grub 1" or "grub 2") and b) where to
put the bootloader (mbr, first sector of partition).
I can be wrong because time passes very quickly and my memory abilities
decreases at the same speed O:-)
