Package: core/grub 0.97-19
The menu.lst file in the latest grub package no longer contains a boot section for the fallback initramfs.
However, the linux package still provides a fallback image preset for mkinitcpio and creates the image when it installs.
Either the fallback image shouldn't be created (this is a linux bug) or grub should provide a boot section for it (this is a grub bug).
   menu.lst.diff (0.4 KiB)
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Duplicate
Additional comments about closing:   FS#25438 

the installer generates the entry for fallback mode. menu.lst from the package is just an example for a generic kernel

I probably should have given the issue a title, doesn't look like I can edit it. My apologies.
