This should be $grubdir. Otherwise it fails for users with a boot partition.

Actual Results: No grub.conf symlink in /boot/boot/grub, therefore no menu Expected Results: Symlink Additional info: (correct patch) diff -ur grub-0.90/ChangeLog grub/ChangeLog --- grub-0.90/ChangeLog Wed Sep 5 15:50:06 2001 +++ grub/ChangeLog Wed Sep 5 15:51:04 2001 @@ -1,3 +1,8 @@ +2001-09-05 Jeremy Katz <katzj> + + * util/grub-install.in: if $grubdir/grub.conf doesn't exist but + $grubdir/menu.lst does, create a symlink + 2001-08-24 Jeremy Katz <katzj> * util/grub-install.in: use mktemp to generate log filename Only in grub: ChangeLog~ diff -ur grub-0.90/util/grub-install.in grub/util/grub-install.in --- grub-0.90/util/grub-install.in Wed Sep 5 15:50:06 2001 +++ grub/util/grub-install.in Wed Sep 5 15:50:24 2001 @@ -320,6 +320,10 @@ exit 1 fi +if ! test -e $grubdir/grub.conf ; then + test -e $grubdir/menu.lst && ln -s ./menu.lst $grubdir/grub.conf +fi + # Create a safe temporary file. test -x /bin/mktemp && log_file=`/bin/mktemp /tmp/grub-install.log.XXXXXX` Only in grub/util: grub-install.in.orig
