(2.6.24-20) how to get onto GRUB
Hi All,
i recently just uploaded the 2.6.24-20 kernel from the system updates a few minutes ago, but i didn't see it in GRUB when i restarted Ubuntu. Is there any way to get menu.lst to see the new update or do i have to load up an older kernel and "reinstall" the update? Any help appreciated, thanks in advance!

If you edit the menu list like below:
gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
You should see an entry towards the bottom that starts something like this:
## ## End Default Options ##
title Ubuntu 8.04.1, kernel 2.6.24-20-generic
If it is not there something went wrong with the install so you can try to re-install all of the 2.6.24-20 entries in synaptic
If it is there then look at the default option to see which entry in the list it is selecting. 0 is the first entry 1 is the second etc.

Is there an entry in you /boot folder for the new kernel?

You may not want to try to run the new kernel. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...59#post5447759 is one of at least four threads I've seen this morning about problems with it.

just restarted doing the above and it still doens't show the update in GRUB(that was only reinstalling over the current one, will try to uninstall and reinstall in synaptic...)
the entries are in the /boot folder but are not showing up in the menu.lst file.
and currently reading about the bug in the update as well.
