[Matt Kraai]

Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.98~20100128-1

Hi,

When I upgrade to this version of grub-pc, the package fails to
configure with the following output:

 Setting up grub-pc (1.98~20100128-1) ...
 /usr/sbin/grub-setup: warn: This GPT partition label has no BIOS Boot Partition; embedding won't be possible!.
 /usr/sbin/grub-setup: warn: Embedding is not possible.  GRUB can only be installed in this setup by using blocklists.  However, blocklists are UNRELIABLE and its use is discouraged..
 /usr/sbin/grub-setup: error: cannot read `/grub/core.img' correctly.
