Bug Description
I just updated my system to the new kernel. Now grub no longer lists Windows in its boot menu. I checked /boot/grub/menu.lst and, indeed, the entry that booted Windows is gone.
Comment from developer: You shouldn't put stuff between these lines:
### BEGIN AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST
### END DEBIAN AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST
because that will be regenerated every time update-grub is run.
Hi,
Can you include a few more details such as the following:
- Which version of Ubuntu you are using
- What version of the new kernel you updated to
- A copy of your menu.lst
