Hi

with enabled memtest inclusion (memtest86=true) update grub fails:

Searching for GRUB installation directory ... found: /boot/grub
Testing for an existing GRUB menu.list file ... found: /boot/grub/menu.lst
Searching for splash image ... none found, skipping ...
Found kernel: /vmlinuz-2.6.16-2-k7
Found kernel: /memtest86.bin
shift: 973: can't shift that many

Versions of packages grub depends on:

ii  libncurses5                   5.5-2      Shared libraries for terminal hand

grub recommends no packages.
