I'm not sure if this is a bug in the postinst hook script for [update-grub]. Everytime I use apt-get postinst wants to update my grub and fails. I have an encrypted swap partition which produces warnings, not sure if this is related.


Using mkinitramfs-kpkg to build the ramdisk.

Any one? Even a pointer what I should be looking at to fix this?

DoH! apt-get purge nvidia-common appears to have resolved this issue.

A new installation and I have the same error, only this time removing nvidia-common has not resolved it.

If I update-grub manually it completes with no errors.

I'm stumped on this because the errors produce no indication what the issue is and how to resolve it.
