[Soekris] Debian on Soekris GRUB Error 16...

[Bill Maas]

Hello Andy,

quick search on well-known search engine reveals a.o.:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/grub/+bug/64928

Admitted, I shun those monstrous GNU "manuals" as well, but typing "grub
error 16" in a search engine input box can't be that hard;).

What a boot loader has to do with fs health remains a mystery to me, I
used to think that that was an OS boot issue. But grub seems to need
data from the fs. Maybe revert to good old reliable Lilo, or the new
EXTLINUX.

Bill
