But that would fix the default kernel to boot from. I have been using 
"default saved" (or "default=saved") for a year or so in the laptop and 
it seems to working quite fine. What is strange is that the 'saved' 
option works in all other of my home computers (one running Sarge and 
the other Sid, both desktops). It used to work in the laptop as well 
before I reinstalled Sid a month or so ago. Since then grub defaults to 
the first option as if it was still reading "default=0" somewhere in the 
menu.lst file.
