And then save the file, and run sudo update-grub from the commandline. I have run in file system $sudo find -name menu.lst and nothing appear any way i skip the part of open the menu.lst file and just did the sudo update-grub and for me it works the image of the new kernel is available after reboot the machine i cehck the kernel version with $ uname -a and this appear Linux victor-desktop 2.6.35-rc6+ #1 SMP Tue Jul 27 16:40:26 CDT 2010 i686 GNU/Linux I don't know if this is a bug in the new kernel release but at least in the abailable documentation it is Any commentary will be appreciated Thanks Victor Rodriguez
