Public bug reported:
After upgrading from Ubuntu 10.10 to 11.04, GRUB gave me a list of old
kernels that however were not in the package database:
This is the /boot directory
[CODE ]abi-2.6.35-22-generic memtest86+_multiboot.bin

memtest86+.bin[/CODE]
but doing:
[CODE] dpkg -l | grep 2.6.35 [/CODE]
didn't show up anything.
Also, in /usr/src/ all old kernels headers were there.
[CODE]ls /usr/src/
bcmwl-5.60.48.36+bdcom linux-headers-2.6.35-25-generic
easy_slow_down_manager-0.13.7 linux-headers-2.6.35-27

linux-headers-2.6.35-22 linux-headers-2.6.35-28
linux-headers-2.6.35-22-generic linux-headers-2.6.35-28-generic
linux-headers-2.6.35-24 linux-headers-2.6.38-8
linux-headers-2.6.35-24-generic linux-headers-2.6.38-8-generic
linux-headers-2.6.35-25 samsung_backlight-0.13.7
[/CODE]
I removed entries related to old kernels manually both from /boot and
/usr/src and the ran sudo update-grub
