Package: linux-image-2.6-686
Version: 2.6.24+13
Severity: important


After an upgrade to the latest kernel and restarting the computer Grub failed to boot. It turned out that the menu entries in 
/boot/grub/menu.lst were pointing to an invalid disk, that is, I got

	root (hd1,0) 

instead of the correct

	root (hd0,0)


After editing the boot command Linux booted fine.

My system has the following disk configuration:

	/dev/sda (SATA HDD):
		/dev/sda1 / ext3
		/dev/sda5 swap

	/dev/hda (IDE CD-ROM)

	/dev/fd0 Floppy

Now you fix this. So this is a user error, closing.
