Description Forgotten User ZhJd0F0L3x 2009-02-17 12:36:26 UTC

I upgraded from FACTORY to FACTORY via "zypper dup" and this is what I got:

stoetzler:~ # l /boot/grub/menu.lst*
-rw------- 1 root root 1037 Feb 17 13:12 /boot/grub/menu.lst
-rw------- 1 root root 1723 Feb 17 13:12 /boot/grub/menu.lst.old


Since my menu.lst is broken now (will file a separate bug for this), it would be good to have the old version somewhere around.
The menu.lst.old is already broken.

I already commit fix for next release of opensuse.
