grub error 18

[Dane Mutters]

It sounds like your menu.lst file in /boot/grub is being overwritten by
the maintainer's version of the config file from the updated package.
Usually, if you've edited that file even a little, it'll ask whether you
want to change it or keep it the same and update it manually.  Something
to consider.
