OK, so like a good boy I also upgraded the kernel (I don't even have any 
guru excuse - clueless newbie excuse work?)

Anyway, borked my driverloader for my wireless card, reading this 
thread, try reboot into grub menu - ahha - kernel -9 is still there,
boot and all is good in the wireless world again.  So the question is 
how do i get grub to boot into the 2.6.12-9-386 kernel by default
rather than the new -10 image?  Without reborking thinks again...
