Summary:  Reassigned item: grub-md5-crypt does not return a hash value but 
instead returns to the command prompt

Original Submission:  I have SuSE 9.1 installed using grub-.93-106.  I am 
trying to secure my grub bootloader by password encrypting it.  I wanted to use 
md5 via the grub-md5-crypt command with no luck.  When I run the command, it 
asks for the password twice but then it does not return a hash.  Instead it 
just returns the command prompt like nothing happend.
