Hello :) i've got the same problem I guess and I got it since I upgraded from Dapper Drake to Edgy Eft (even with reinstalling the system from scratch). grub does not properly generate the menu.lst so I can't boot without editing manually the startup script. It is a problem of UUID by the way : my fstab / blkid and disk/by-uuid does not return the same UUID for my sda8 partition (my / one).
My menu.lst is attached here as it was generated since my last upgrade (last friday, Feisty Fawn). (hd0,0) should be (hd0,7) UUID=0fcf2f00-4ae6-1c00-0000-000002000000 For the sda8 partition, I have this entry in /etc/fstab : # /dev/sda8 UUID=bc77bcba-0825-4875-8536-21295d7ffc2c / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1 blkid returns this to me : /dev/sda8: UUID="bc77bcba-0825-4875-8536-21295d7ffc2c" SEC_TYPE="ext2" TYPE="ext3" ls -al /dev/disk/by-uuid returns this : lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 2007-04-25 19:39 c4392b00-d50c-1d00-0000-000002000000 -> ../../sda8 :-/ ** Attachment added: "menu.lst" http://librarian.launchpad.net/7407040/menu.lst -- GRUB's menu.lst modified in wrong way -> Error 15 File not found on next reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/61108 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
