Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and help to improve Ubuntu. If the generated boot stanza doesn't match your hard drive configuration, then you need to adjust the groot and kopt settings in the upper part of your menu.lst, so that update-grub has correct information to use when gen

Hello. Problem solved. My issue was related with blkid having old entries in cache (/etc/blkid.tab) which confused update-grub. Old entries came from my old drive which I recently upgraded. I cleaned the cache (sudo blkid -g), removed menu.lst and run update-grub which created new menu.lst with co

Hello, I encountered the same problem, correct root partition is not properly detected: there's "root (hd0,6)" instead of "root (hd0,4)" (there's also a problem of uuids, but I will fill a bug report for this /or find already existing one/). "6" comes from, probably, Linux way of numbering partiti

I agree with jimjin. I did not manually change menu.lst after an installation of Ubuntu. I just put "/boot" as a different partition than "/" so menu.lst should set up correctly by default. Unfortunately, after every kernel update, my proper "hd(0,0)" automatically changes to "hd(0,1)". I can manag

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The default installation process of Ubuntu should have used UUIDs for drive partitions instead of /dev/hda1. You can learn more about UUIDs at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingUUID . How exactly did you go
