[Bug 1289977] Re: Ubuntu 14.04 Update breaks grub, resulting in "error: symbol 'grub_term_highlight_color' not found"

[xreuze]

When you are Migrateing -> to 14.04 LTS from previous any linux or have multiboot systems do this. When you are updateing a new KERNEL in your new installation or after complete new installation. New KERNEL module will be loaded up to make your 14.04 LTS have latest drives etc. After update or after new installation when you migrated from previous installation 12.04 or 13.10 etc. You need to clean your OLD kernel module out from your system.  Install Ubuntu - Tweak  , Janitor to remove old Kernel and Old stuff that can give problems to load new Kernel to work when booting up your new installation, or when you updated new KERNEL. Often will clear lots of problems with 'grub ' or multiboot systems.

Title:
  Ubuntu 14.04 Update breaks grub, resulting in "error: symbol
  'grub_term_highlight_color' not found"

Status in “grub2” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  The update from 13.10 to 14.04 via update-manager broke grub for me,
  which resulted in the grub error:

  "symbol 'grub_term_highlight_color' not found"

  on startup.

  To fix the problem I had to boot to my persisting Ubuntu installation
  (e.g. using Super Grub Disk) and had to reinstall grub on my boot
  partition: "sudo grub-install --recheck /dev/sdx"
