[Bug 387687] [NEW] grub contains to few modules in rescue mode

[Hiram]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: grub2

I installed Karmic Koala alpha 2 in vmware on a real partition on my
macbook 5.1. When i tried to boot karmic nativly instead of in vmware
fusion, grub2 failed saying 'error: no such partition'. The resulting
rescue commandline however contained not enough commands to actualy be
able to rescue me.

it listed 'help' as an command to view the available command but help
was not available.

i found only the following commands present:
ls, set and uset

I would advise to atleast include help and halt.

however i kind of expect root, insmod, lsmod, rmmod, cat also to be
present.
