Bug#477791: grub: Wrong splash image path construction

[Roland Stigge]

Package: grub
Version: 0.97-36
Severity: normal

Hi,

in /usr/sbin/update-grub:721, we have:

splashimage_path="splashimage=${grub_root_device}${grub_dir##${kernel_dir}}/splash.xpm.gz"

with

grub_root_device=(hd0,2)
grub_dir=/boot/grub
kernel_dir=/boot

this results in:

splashimage=(hd0,2)/grub/splash.xpm.gz

Which is not correct because as seen above, I have /boot as a
subdirectory on the boot device (hd0,2), not as a separate partition.

Thanks for considering,

Roland
