I recently got a new harddrive, so i backed up my previous drive into a tarball.. I extracted the contents onto my new harddrive and everything works fine but..
every time i install a new linux image, it likes to add a new grub entry, and every time it adds an entry, the UUID in those entries are incorrect(it's possibly using the UUID from my previous drive), resulting in a GRUB "file not found" error, unless i remember to fix it. This is very inconvenient and i don't want to keep having to fix my menu.lst
is there anyway for me to tell the system what the correct UUID is? Right now it's assuming one that is incorrect (possibly my old drive's UUID) How can i change that?
