[Bug 348320] [NEW] Please backport friendly-recovery from Ubuntu 9.04 "Jaunty"

[Mantas Kriaučiūnas]

Public bug reported:

Please backport friendly-recovery from Jaunty to Intrepid  - new version
has 2 important features:

1. recovery mode with networking via dhclient 
2. support for grub reinstall 

Also it would be nice if you backport newest friendly-recovery from
Jaunty to Ubuntu 8.04 LTS (Hardy) - I've installed Jaunty's (0.2.8.1)
version to my 8.04 system, tested it and didn't find any problems :)

Here's full changelog since Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy:
