Bug Description
Binary package hint: linux-image-
When linux is not on first partition on first hd, it doesn't boot after this kernel update ( linux-image-
It was verified on 2 machines:
1) original menu lst entry
title Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.15-
root (hd0,1)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-
initrd /boot/initrd.
savedefault
boot
after upgrade:
title Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.15-
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-
initrd /boot/initrd.
savedefault
boot
the second machine has (hd0,5) replaced with (hd0,0) and /dev/hda6 with /dev/hda1
It was nightmare, because it lock out one of our customer's server Friday evening and we should make 300km trip in order to fix things up :-(
The kernel doesn't modify the menu.lst, it only calls update-grub.
