Public bug reported:
This morning I upgraded to kernel 2.6.24-27-generic on my kubuntu
8.04.4LTS distro.
I chose to have menu.lst modified by "the maintainers" or whatever they
called themselves (I forget now).
Grub failed with "No such Partition" Error 22.
Previous kernels would not boot either, failing with the same error.
The relevant entry in menu.lst looked like this:
title Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS, kernel 2.6.24-27-generic
root (hd0,5)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-27-generic root=/dev/sda5 ro vga=normal
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-27-generic
This is how it always used to look. But I had to change the root line to
this:
root (hd0,4)
All the other menu entries also needed the (hdx,y) partition number
decrementing by one.
Now grub boots fine.
Hope this helps.
