Comment 2 for bug 300932

Thanks for your report.

The error is
=====
 Conflicts found! Please edit `/var/run/grub/menu.lst' and sort them out manually.
 The file `/var/run/grub/menu.lst.ucf-new' has a record of the failed merge of the configuration file.

User postinst hook script [/sbin/update-grub] exited with value 3
dpkg: error processing linux-image-2.6.27-9-generic (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 3
=====

This is probably because you've selected the 3 way merge with a locally modified version. Could you please reproduce the error and attach the files /var/run/grub/menu.lst.ucf-new and /var/run/grub/menu.lst .

Thanks.
