Actually, 11.04 was originally on sda6 and I cloned it to sda5, then I 
upgraded sda6 to 12.04.

When I start the laptop, the GRUB that appears is definitely the one on sda5.  
The entries for 3.2.0-58 and 2.6.38-16 on sda6 both point to the same UUID.  
One works and the other doesn't.

Since the file is actually there, I want to know if there is any other problem 
which which might be misreported as an "Error 15:  File not found."

Is it information if no one knows it?
