ubuntu 8.04 update

[mosaic2s]

About a week, Ubuntu 8.04 LTS updated to
Ubuntu 8.04.3 LTS, kernel 2.6.24-25-generic

However, I did not update the grub menu list at that time. So my machine runs
Ubuntu 8.04.3 LTS, kernel 2.6.24-24-generic

Can I now edit the existing grub menu so that latest kernel is used?

If you updated Ubuntu with
sudo do-release-upgrade -d you don't have to touch grub.

When that kernel was installed, grub has added it already. You need to reboot to run that kernel..

If you updated Ubuntu with
sudo do-release-upgrade -d you don't have to touch grub.

-d is only to upgrade to development releases. Normal upgrades can do without the -d...

I am using LTS version and sticking to it. So updates are done to LTS version without upgrading to the 8.10 or 9.04.

However, the kernal gets updated about once in 4 months or so.

I had made some changes in the grub menu file hence I did not accept the updation to grub menu while the updation was on. Now, I wish to edit the grub menu file so that latest kernel installed in my system can be used. But I have no idea where the kernel versions may be saved.

Is there a way to access the new but not applied grub menu file?

update-grub regenerates the file, which is located at /boot/grub/menu.lst
