Multiple grub menu.lst?

[Charlie Zender]

Hi,

My hardy upgrade failed because it cannot find grub's new menu.lst.
The computer boots with the _old_ (gutsy) menu.lst, not with the
new (hardy) menu.lst. I checked and sure enough /boot/grub/menu.lst
has the correct (hardy) kernels. But the boot menu shows the old
menu.lst. It is booting from a menu.lst but not the one in /boot/grub.

I think /boot only mounts correctly after
the (old gutsy) kernel boots. That is why I see the new menu.lst
in /boot/grub. But before the kernel boots, it is finding the old
menu.lst _somewhere_ and hence booting the old (gutsy) kernel.
Weird, huh? This all traces back to brokeness that started when
edgy switch from human-readable fstab entries to UUIDs.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
charlie
