Hi!, drs305,
I am now more confused than ever.
The last few days I have had a spate of 'System Fault Detected' & 'Program XXX has stopped unexpectedly' messages, and I got several in the middle of Update Manager. configuring the kernal update Download in 12.04 on sde11. Finally UM crashed completely.
From Root I ran:
Code:
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get dist-upgrade
dpkg --configure -a # none of which seemed to do anything.
dpkg-reconfigure -a # which took 12 minutes but showed nothing.
I then rebooted without running either update-grub or Grub Customizer.
To my surprise the Boot menu showed 12.04 -30 & 12.04-29, both with recovery entries; but the four false sde8 entries were all back: the /boot/grub/grub.cfg file also had the four false sde8 entries back, Your code shows it correctly as it displays:
Code:

Update Manager is now running again and now claims there are no updates, and I have to decide whether to update sde8 as well.
Edit: It would seem that deleting menu entries from the grub.cfg file has no effect.
{ There was an error in my last post I have edited: the second initrd entry was: "initrd.img.old", not: "initrd-img~1"}.
Chao!, bogan.
