| 2008-10-03 22:02:41 | Steve Langasek | grub: statusexplanation | 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 generating this stanza. In Ubuntu 8.04 and above, update-grub will warn if these settings don't match, instead of silently overwriting; so this bug is considered fixed in later releases. |
