Description:
I installed grub 2 after I finished the archlinux install.
pacman asked me if i do grub legecy would be removed and I did. the install finished with no error. after that I did
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
and
grub_bios-install --grub-setup=/bin/true --boot-directory=/boot --no-floppy --recheck /dev/sda
and they did fine too.
after that I rebooted and i got
error: symbol not found.
'grub_divmod64_full'

Entering rescue mode ...

grub rescue>
i removed grub2 by pacman and install it again and I did the process again and I get the same error.
I have no idea where and how to fix it but I know it is something to do with grub mostly.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
extra/grub2-bios 1:1.99-4
extra/grub2-common 1:1.99-4
* config and/or log files etc.
grub.cfg http://pastie.org/2365681
blkid http://pastie.org/2365699 (sda3=boot sda4=root)

Steps to reproduce:
I check the grub.cfg also I check my fstab and also reinstall grub2. nothing helped.

NOTICE: this error is different than what is reported in ubuntu launchpad at least i think it is because in this error there is not any suggestion about the uuid error or something like that.

NEEDS ATTENTION
This task depends upon

the other reason it is different than ubuntu launchpad error is that I am using GPT and not MBR

@krax: Can you try reinstall using grub_bios-install?
