Hi Adam, thank you for the .deb you provided us! I'm afraid I'm messing up things. I installed the package on my Ubuntu 10.10 on which Grub2 is installed too; the installation created a menu.lst file for Grub1, with the entries to load the correct kernel image at boot time. But when I switch on the pc, Grub2 is loaded and no entry for the newly installed kernel can be found. What should I do now to load the kernel image I want?
Thank you for your patience, I'm a newbie in this area!
