===========================================

Thank you Karl and Dave,

I ran sudo update-grub and this is what I got:-

"
 A new version of /boot/grub/menu.lst is available, but the version   │ 
    │ installed currently has been locally modified.

What does it mean?  

What should I do now, please?
