On my Hardy installation /boot resides on the / partition. The problem 
turned out to be my Jaunty installation (on the same disk). Since I had 
installed it last, I was booting with it's menu.lst. For some reason it
wasn't picking up the last two kernel upgrades. Running update-grub
didn't help. Had to add the last two Hardy entries manually. Works now
but I still don't know why Jaunty's grub didn't pick up the Hardy
upgrades. I may be wrong but I seem to remember it doing that before.

Thanks for the suggestion.
