What does apt-cache policy?
merkaba:~> LANG=C apt-cache policy grub-pc
grub-pc:
Installed: 2.00-7
Candidate: 2.00-7
Version table:
*** 2.00-7 0
200 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ experimental/main amd64
Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
1.99-23 0
500 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ sid/main amd64 Packages
What does
merkaba:~> dpkg -s grub-pc | grep Status
Status: install ok installed
say on your system?
Does
dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc
work?
Why does your system have a non-standard kernel? Are any other non
standard package repositories active?
My recommendation from the other post still applies ;).
With some luck you should be able to downgrade to older grub-pc:
apt-get install grub-pc=1.99-23
or something like that. But that might not work in the current state your
grub-pc package is in.
Now, lets test whether this new grub2 boots ;). (GRML USB-Stick in reach.)
