I have such a partition configuration: /dev/sda1: /boot /dev/sda2: swap /dev/sda3: windows /dev/sda5: / /dev/sda6: /home
In my menu.lst file I have lines containing: "root (hd0,0)" which is true. Nonetheless, after every kernel update, it automatically changes to "hd(0,1)" which breaks running of Ubuntu, forcing me to manually change it back. It's not very much problem for me, but I also installed Ubuntu at my family's computer and it's strange if GRUB gets broken after just an update. My (PROPER!) /boot/grub/menu.lst ends with that: "## ## End Default Options ## title Ubuntu 7.10, kernel 2.6.22-14-generic root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-generic root=UUID=27771eab-0c14-46c4-86cc-3883a332c1c5 ro quiet splash initrd /initrd.img-2.6.22-14-generic quiet title Ubuntu 7.10, kernel 2.6.22-14-generic (recovery mode) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-generic root=UUID=27771eab-0c14-46c4-86cc-3883a332c1c5 ro single initrd /initrd.img-2.6.22-14-generic title Ubuntu 7.10, memtest86+ root (hd0,0) kernel /memtest86+.bin quiet ### END DEBIAN AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST (...)
