  Msg # 4 of 20 on ZZLI4421, Wednesday 9-02-25, 1:18  
  From: CLAUDE HEILAND-ALLEN  
  To: ALL  
  Subj: Bug#1113715: upgrade-reports: grub menu   
 XPost: linux.debian.bugs.dist 
 From: claude@mathr.co.uk 
  
 Package: upgrade-reports 
 Severity: normal 
 X-Debbugs-Cc: claude@mathr.co.uk 
  
 My previous release is: bookworm 
 I am upgrading to: trixie 
 Archive date: 2025-09-01 
 Upgrade date: 2025-09-01 
 uname -a before upgrade: (sorry I did not keep a copy) 
 uname -a after upgrade: Linux eiskaffee 6.12.41+deb13-amd64 #1 SMP 
 PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian 6.12.41-1 (2025-08-12) x86_64 GNU/Linux 
 Method: apt full-upgrade 
  
 - Were there any non-Debian packages installed before the upgrade?  If 
   so, what were they? 
  
 wine from winehq, maybe virtualbox from oracle 
  
 - Was the system pre-update a 'pure' system only containing packages 
   from the previous release? If not, which packages were not from that 
   release? 
  
 kernel and probably some other things from bookworm backports 
  
 - Did any packages fail to upgrade? 
  
 python3 failed to upgrade initially because apt-listbugs somehow 
 pinned some python things to -30000 priority, removing the file 
 allowed upgrade to continue without issues. 
  
 kernel required manual reinstallation due to apt removing the 
 currently running version or something. 
  
 - Were there any problems with the system after upgrading? 
  
 Yes, quite severe: 
  
 On first reboot, grub menu failed to load and my motherboard's 
 bios configuration screen was displayed. 
  
 I needed to reboot to a bookworm live usb I had handy, chroot 
 into the installed system, and reinstall grub with apt. 
 This pulled in a package, grub-efi-amd64, which had not been 
 installed previously. 
  
 After reinstalling grub, the next reboot worked fine.
