Comments/Problems:
I've installed Sarge on a machine with allready Sid, with a boot partition with lots 
of kernels.
Installing grub result in deletion (without backup) of the old menu.lst. The section 
for the 
Sarge's kernel in menu.lst was right but, the sections for all the other kernel were 
pointing 
to the Sarge root partition and not the Sid (they are the old kernel for Sid).

Maybe the easiest solution is to backup menu.lst if there is an older one, and give 
a message to the user. 
Would be nice if I could add through the installer a new section for the choosen 
kernel in 
to menu.lst, without re-installing grub (this is the strength of grub).

As last note, X and alsa were not configured out-of-the-box.

Thanks for your work!
-Antonio
