That's not an answer to the question.  We need to see version numbers
here.

Ok, thanks.

Well, then why did you need to manually tell grub which kernel to boot?  If
you hadn't done this, what would have been booted?

Title:
  grub errors after every kernel version upgrade

Status in “grub” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  With almost every kernel upgrade, now and before(kubuntu - 10.04. 10.11 , 11.04 and 11.11) grub fails to install proper , so every time i need to enter:
  > linux (hd0,1)/vmlinuz root=/dev/sda1
  > initrd (hd0,1)/initrd.img
  > boot

  As you see it is trivial system with one hdd.
  Just before 11.11 i decide that my hdd isn't proper formated, so i've backup my data and i made new clean install.
  Now again with new kernel version the situation is the same as before, i have  to manual boot from grub shell.
  I think there is something very wrong with grub version in Ubuntu, and my searches in Google gives big count of 
  results related to : Cannot start ubuntu after kernel upgrade,
  My versions is Kubuntu if this is important.

  Thanks
