[Bug 216930] [NEW] upgrade to 7.10 menu.lst corrupted

[PKirkham]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox

I've just upgraded to 7.10 as proposed by the automatic update process.
Everything went smoothly until the machine rebooted when it couldn't
find the correct partition. This was due to grub's menu.lst having been
incorrectly updated since I have a dual boot system and Windows boots on
the first partition hd0,0, Ubuntu boots on the 2nd hd0,1

The updated menu.lst was looking for all the Ubuntu images on hd0,0

The following is my correction to menu.lst where all the ubuntu related
root statements read root (hd0,0) before correction.
