Description:   Opened: 2008-05-07 11:24 0000 
The current version of grub (0.97) does not load the configuration file
/boot/grub/grub.conf
but
/boot/grub/menu.lst

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create /boot/grub/grub.conf in installation process as described
2.unmount harddisks and reboot


Actual Results:  
grub boots into command line

Expected Results:  
grub should boot into menu

------- Comment #1 From Graham Murray 2008-05-07 11:59:57 0000 ------- 
Has grub not always booted from menu.lst? Which is why menu.lst is normally a
symlink to grub.conf.

------- Comment #2 From Jan Kundrát 2008-05-07 12:53:32 0000 ------- 
Nope, grub has been using /boot/grub/grub.conf for at least last two years.
Passing to grub maintainers to determine if it really doesn't attempt to read
/boot/grub/grub.conf at all...

------- Comment #3 From Stéphane Pagnon 2008-05-07 23:16:52 0000 ------- 
should also be change in
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-x86-quickinstall.xml
might also be change for other platform.

------- Comment #4 From SpanKY 2008-05-10 09:00:44 0000 ------- 
ive restored the menu.lst -> grub.conf symlink
