Hi,
everytime I upgrade kernel (debian unstable), grub is automatically
updated. But grub "points" to the $HOME partition and not '/'
partition. And so I must modify menu.lst file manually.
Is it a bug or a bad setting?
example:
If my kernel is in /dev/hda1 and my $HOME in /dev/hda3, after upgrade
grub points for kernel image to /dev/hda3 instead of /dev/hda1
Thanks,
Giulio

Can you post an excerpt from your menu.lst to show what you mean?
There are defaults for some grub options earlier in the file eg root
device, options etc. Check that those are set correctly for your setup.
They are copied to the other menu items when that file is updated by
adding/removing a kernel.

Hi Gulio,
should not be normal. Please check in /boot/grub/menul.lst the line
# kopt=root=/dev/hda6 ro
It is in the section with the many hashes. Do not remove the hashes (suppose,
you know this).

this is an extract of my menu.lst:
# kopt=root=/dev/hda7 ro
## default grub root device
## e.g. groot=(hd0,0)
# groot=(hd0,6)
could it become like this?
# kopt=root=/dev/hda3 ro
## default grub root device
## e.g. groot=(hd0,0)
# groot=(hd0,2)

Yes, just edit it.
