Graeme,

I replicate your settings in my ubuntu-only box and get the same results.

My altered settings, regarding this problem:

/etc/fstab: mounts LABEL=/root as  /    
/boot/grub/menu.lst: passing root=LABEL=/root to kernel
/etc/mkinitrd/mkinitrd.conf: ROOT=probe

With these settings, I get the same results when upgrading kernel.

Reversing the settings to original conf:

/etc/fstab: mounts /dev/hda2 as  /    
/boot/grub/menu.lst: passing root=/dev/hda2 to kernel
/etc/mkinitrd/mkinitrd.conf: ROOT=probe

turns that apt-get install runs clear and configures the new kernel.

I'll do a little more testing on my multiboot machine and post the results here.
Seems that LABEL tag is causing all mess.
