[Bug 1236174] Re: Grub2 doesn't find it's config file after clean Kubuntu installation

[JR]

I forgot to mention: in the grub-shell, when i enter 'set' I see a
prefix that uses hd0,whatever, but I think it should be hd2

I've no idea, why it is hd2 in grub, because I think I only have hd0 and
hd1 (linux also shows /dev/sda and /dev/sdb), so I'm not sure if the
actual bug is grub using hd2 instead of hd0 or using a wrong path.

Title:
  Grub2 doesn't find it's config file after clean Kubuntu installation

Status in “grub2” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I've installed the latest Saucy Kubuntu image (amd64) on a new machine
  last friday. This is my first time with a efi system - and I don't
  have any experience with that. It seems the Kubuntu installer
  correctly added the Kubuntu boot entry to the efi boot manager.

  My system has 2 Harddisks, a SSD and a normal one.
  I boot from the SSD.
  I've chosen manual partitions:
    * the efi partition
    * a boot partition with ext2
    * the root partition with btrfs

  after rebooting, i get into the grub-shell.

  after that, I need to type

  configfile (hd2,gpt2)/grub/grub.cfg

  and grub starts as normal. I'd prefer having grub finding it's config
  file by itself. I even don't know how to force this config file
  manually.
