[Fwd: Bug#533898: grub-mkdevicemap gives wrong alias for device on powerpc]

[Felix Zielcke]

Anyone knows something about this one?

By the way I'm still not sure if I should forward bugs to grub-devel or
bug-grub.
IIRC nobody objected against using bug-grub but I think only Vladimir,
Robert and me are subscribed there or is that not true?
