Subject: [PATCH] Abort grub-install if prefix cannot be determined
Date: Thu, 24 Jul 2008 07:39:24 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4888158C.1070506@t-online.de> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 421 bytes --]

grub-install does not check error return from 
make_system_path_relative_to_its_root() fails.

BTW: Unlike the other scripts, grub-install does not 'set -e'. Is this 
intentional or historic ?-)

	* util/i386/pc/grub-install.in: If `--debug' is specified,
	pass `--verbose' to grub-setup.
	Abort script if make_system_path_relative_to_its_root() fails.
