Pangolin 12.04 beta 2 updates are mangling grub. After an update that does a update-grub rebooting results in a:
Purple screen with a few columns of faint black lines at the top.
Sometimes boot-repair works, not recently, it repairs to the same purple screen and faint black lines.
So I get my multi-partitions going again by installing Lucid Lynx in a spare partition. So far, never fails!
Attached is a copy of the boot-repair info. It said it worked but I got the same purple screen with a few black lines at the top.
With nothing running can't do an ubuntu-bug grub.
Sure would like to know how to save grub & configuration so I could at least boot live and restore them.

Thanks much,
