THIS MEANS YOU HAVE CURRENTLY AN UNBOOTABLE SYSTEM.
Either fix the error from update-grub and run $0 again

grub-legacy in your MBR.

GRUB Legacy has been removed, but its configuration files have been preserved,
since this script cannot determine if they contain valuable information.  If
you would like to remove the configuration files as well, use the following
command:

rm -f /boot/grub/menu.lst*
