Reboot: [E] /dev/sde instead of /dev/sda in GRUB menu.lst

Comments/Problems:

My previous installation failed since kernel 2.6.8 which do not support my SATA
controller was installed (my hard drive wasn't detected using a Sarge netinst).

So I took a 2.6.11 kernel-image package and install it using dpkg just after
installing the base system. Everyting seems to be Ok but I noticed something
strange during Grub install, my hard drive is /dev/sda and I got /dev/sde in my
menu.lst. I had to change that value for /dev/sda to make it work.

After first reboot and debian setup. I upgraded the system to sid and install a new
2.6.12 kernel-image which updated menu.lst with always /dev/sde instead of /dev/sda.

Now everything works fine thanks for your help.

Comments/Problems: kernel 2.6.12-1 was used for install but 2.6.8 was installed after reboot I got kernel panic

<Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments

and ideas you had during the initial install.>

My first idea was to install kernel 2.6.12 instead of 2.6.8 before reboot, but howto?
