20080807
This week's Hug Day will focus on Grub! The goal of today's bug day will be to make a user's system boot without intervention and make many people's first impression of Ubuntu rock!
Here we have a sampling of bugs to work on for Hug Day. After you have triaged or fixed a bug put your name in the last column and set the row's background to green by adding lightgreen in the first cell of the column after "background-color:" and before ";". This will let people know that the bug in that row has been hugged.

- 5-a-day --add-tag hugday-20080807
