Title:
  GRUB not booting ubuntu 8.10 LVM after kernel updates

Status in grub package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: grub

  This error occurs on:
  *a system installed on LVM
  *having an extended boot partition containig initrd/vmlinuz/GRUB/etc.

  After applying upgrade linux-headers-2.6.xx-xx with the update manager
  the system will not boot anymore.

  GRUB gives a Error 15. Meaning initrd.img-2.6.xx-xx / vmlinuz-2.6.xx-xx can not be found.
  This is because during the update GRUB's menu.lst doesn't get updated correctly.

  All the entries look like this after the update:

  title		Ubuntu 8.10, kernel 2.6.27-11-generic
  uuid		75648e19-4c35-4179-8480-5d88690934b4
  kernel	/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27-11-generic root=/dev/mapper/qio-root ro quiet splash 
  initrd	/boot/initrd.img-2.6.27-11-generic
  quiet

  BUT, the vmlinuz and initrd are not in the /boot/ directory of the boot partition, but just in the root.
  So the working GRUB entry is:

  All the entries should look similar to this after the update:

  title		Ubuntu 8.10, kernel 2.6.27-11-generic
  uuid		75648e19-4c35-4179-8480-5d88690934b4
  kernel	vmlinuz-2.6.27-11-generic root=/dev/mapper/qio-root ro quiet splash 
  initrd	initrd.img-2.6.27-11-generic
  quiet
