Description Nick Reale 2016-03-05 17:15:29 UTC 
Upon updating to the new 2.02_beta3 release from the previous unstable release my system suddenly became unbootable.  Looking at the grub.cfg Grub is attempting to use root=UUID to boot due to my intel microcode-only initrd.  I had previously set GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID to true in /etc/default/grub in order to prevent that from happening (instead it would generate root=/dev/sdX), which worked fine until this update.

Fixed in grub-2.02_beta3-r1. Thanks for the report!
