Running Debian Squeeze. Just got an update, & now my terminal is hung up 
with the following message:


Configuring grub-pc ├──────────────────────────┐
  │                                                                           │
  │ which devices you'd like grub-install to be automatically run for, if
  │ any.
  │
  │ It is recommended that you do this in most situations, to prevent the
  │ installed GRUB from getting out of sync with other components such as
  │ grub.cfg or with newer Linux images it will have to load.
  │
  │ If you're unsure which drive is designated as boot drive by your BIOS,
  │ it is often a good idea to install GRUB to all of them.
  │
  │ Note: It is possible to install GRUB to partition boot records as well,
  │ and some appropriate partitions are offered here.  However, this forces
  │ GRUB to use the blocklist mechanism, which makes it less reliable, and
  │ therefore is not recommended.
  │
  │ <Ok>
  │

No options are given, the "<Ok> " is not a real return button. I tried 
restarting (had to give password to do so)... & then re updating, it 
goes back to this same message & hangs up. It's been about 20 minutes 
now... I only have two HD's. What to do?


Thanks.
Henry
