Hello,

I want to get the new fallback/savedefault work.  I just tried the cvs
version.

I have this menu.lst:
--->8--->8--->8--->8
default saved
timeout 3
fallback 1 2

title Linux
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/hda1 devfs=mount acpi=ht resume=/dev/hda5
initrd /boot/initrd.img
savedefault fallback

title Linux2
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/hda1 devfs=mount acpi=ht resume=/dev/hda5
initrd /boot/initrd.img
savedefault fallback

title Linux3
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.26-1mdk root=/dev/hda1 devfs=mount acpi=ht
resume=/dev/hda5
initrd /boot/initrd-2.4.26-1mdk.img
savedefault fallback
--->8--->8--->8--->8

And the file (hd0,0)/boot/grub/default exists (created by
"grub-set-default 0").

But it doesn't work. The first time, I choose the item Linux, and grub
said me "File Not Found". So I edit the item (key "e"), and delete the
line "savedefault fallback" (key "d"). I try again (key "b"), and it
works. So I assume the lines root, kernel and initrd are correct but
the line "savedefault fallback" cause the error.

I don't understand.

$ /usr/local/sbin/grub --version
grub (GNU GRUB 0.95)
(it's the cvs version from today)

Maybe grub fails to write in the file (hd0,0)/boot/grub/default.

Any ideas?

Thank you for this feature, it is just what I need ;)

Alban
