[Bug 860248] Re: Prompted to manually accept changed menu.lst even though the diff was automatic

Moving to grub, since menu.lst isn't grub2.  Note that this means this
will only happen to people who've been upgrading since we installed grub
by default, or people who manually selected grub for some reason.

I suspect that this is unfixable for Oneiric.  One of the reasons
grub.cfg is generated the way it is in grub2 is that this kind of bug
couldn't be fixed in grub without causing something else to go wrong.

** Package changed: grub2 (Ubuntu Oneiric) => grub (Ubuntu Oneiric)

** Changed in: grub (Ubuntu Oneiric)
    Milestone: ubuntu-11.10 => None
