Bug Description
"The procedure for GRUB is quite similar. Locate your menu.lst in the /boot/grub/ directory (sometimes in the /boot/boot/grub/),"
On my ubuntu system there is no menu.lst file - it uses /etc/default/grub. So now I have to learn how to configure this strange grub setup. Would be better if the instructions worked for ubuntu or even better if there was a package I could download that downloaded the required files and setup grub for me.
I'm now having serious doubts about following the rest of this guide.

So it seems its because we now use grub2 - so please add grub2 instructions to this doc. Even if its just a link to here: https:/
Essentially you do something like this
* Add the entry to the bottom of /etc/grub.
* Change (hd0,0) to be where your root is - so for me its sdc4 which becomes (hd2, 4)
* Run sudo update-grub
I'm about to try this - hopefully will be able to boot again after. This install is hard work.
