[Bug 386802] Re: grub-setup crashed with SIGSEGV in __libc_start_main()

[Seth]

The post from Kamilion solved my problem also. +1

This was the diff 'sudo grub-mkdevicemap' explicitely:

sehe at karmic:~$ sdiff /home/sehe/oldboot/boot/grub/device.map /boot/grub/device.map
(hd0)	/dev/sda						(hd0)	/dev/sda
(hd1)	/dev/sdb						(hd1)	/dev/sdb
							      >	(hd2)	/dev/sdc

Note that I had added an old harddisk to my system some time ago. This
got recognized as sdb (!), moving my prior sdb to sdc. The killing
detail, however, is that my root vg is striped across sda and sdc (in
the new setup). Grub don't grok that !

So, IMHO the bug is that the device map _should_ have been
checked/regenerated by update-grub, since upgrading kernel images will
call update-grub only.
