Didn't help. Running grub setup (or install), the grub-install script, yast
bootloader, reinstalling the grub package, much tinkering with menu.lst, and
many other things didn't help. What finally did work was:
cp /usr/lib/grub/stage2 /boot/grub
Which makes sense when you look at the symptoms (it can read the filesystem,
but can't load the menu or the kernel), but it's usually easier in hindsight.
Don't know if you want to close this bug or not-my problem is fixed, but the
actual bug is that the stage2 wasn't copied to /boot/grub properly on
upgrade-I'm not sure at this point if it was corrupted or if the 10.2 stage2
was just left in place. Either way, the result was rather difficult to fix.
