I am running a very standard RedHat 8.0 system.

Can anyone else reproduce this error?

The -d option I changed a while ago to include all files (--showall). This
made sence to me at the time, but the time was probably sometime after 1am.
Let me know if it does not make sence and I will change it back.

I don't distribute the rawhide server line with GRAB. Is that what you mean?
Nothing has changed, and unfortunatly I don't use it. Will you send me the
line that is now broke and what used to work?

Thanks for the input!
