Ubuntu 10.04 has Grub 2 by default. So, instead of menu.lst, there's grub.cfg. You don't need to manually modify this file. Once you boot into Ubuntu, run 'sudo update-grub'. It should automatically detect your Windows 7 installation and add the corresponding entry in grub.cfg. -- Regards Osric Xavier Fernandes -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
