Re: Uploaded grub 0.5.96 (source i386) to master
[Bug-grub added to the list. This is a Debian integration problem,
though, so I'll take care of it.]

The correct solution to this is to make a symlink to the kernel you
want to boot, then use the symlink in the menu.lst (which Joseph
alluded to). I don't think any other kind of hackery is necessary.
So, it is up to the make-kpkg folks to deal with this aspect of the
problem. It would be nice to generate a default menu.lst, but that
really only can be done by the user (due to the countless ways a fully
automatic installation can screw up your system). If this gets better
in the future, I'll support it in the GRUB Debian package.
At the very least I can add some documentation to GRUB's README.Debian
to point out how it should be done.
