Title:
  update-grub doesn't write a correct grub.cfg in Karmic

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: grub

  update-grub recognized correctely 3 OS on my pc :

  1) main OS Karmic 64;
  2) Karmic 32 for working with some closed source packages available only in 32 bit;
  3) Karmic 64 emergency system (a cp -a of my system on a different partition)

  
  For a reason I can't understand, the menuentry 3) is :

  	search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 20592abf-12bf-4a78-a11b-e3af3bf1b29f (CORRECT UUID)
  	linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-14-generic root=UUID=69f429f9-dc0a-4422-af1f-8eb4796e0294 ro single (INCORRECT UUID, UUID OF OS 1)
  	initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.31-14-generic

  As far a I can't manually edit grub.cfg, I can't correct the
  menuentry, and can't add "set quiet=1";

  The grub2 system is definitely too rigid and window$ style (plug &
  pray)

  I tried to chattr -i /boot/grub/grub.cfg but no results
