No meu laptop Ubuntu 9.04 ("Karmic"), eu suspeito que o grub não use o arquivo /boot/grub/menu.lst.
O que acontece na inicialização é que vejo uma tela em branco e nada acontece. Quando eu pressiono ESC eu vejo uma lista de inicialização que é diferente do que eu esperaria do arquivo menu.lst. As linhas do menu são diferentes e quando eu escolho a primeira entrada, ele não usa as opções do kernel que estão na primeira entrada no menu.lst.
De onde vêm as entradas que o grub usa? Como posso descobrir o que acontece, existe um log? Eu não consegui encontrar nada em / var / log / syslog ou / var / log / dmesg sobre o grub usando um menu.lst.
Como posso configurá-lo para funcionar como esperado? Alguns arquivos:
$ sudo ls -la /boot/grub/*lst

O único menu.lst que encontrei:
$ sudo find / -name "menu.lst"
/boot/grub/menu.lst
$ sudo cat /boot/grub/menu.lst
# menu.lst - See: grub(8), info grub, update-grub(8)
# grub-install(8), grub-floppy(8),
# grub-md5-crypt, /usr/share/doc/grub
# and /usr/share/doc/grub-doc/.
## default num
# Set the default entry to the entry number NUM. Numbering starts from 0, and
# the entry number 0 is the default if the command is not used.
#
# You can specify 'saved' instead of a number. In this case, the default entry
# is the entry saved with the command 'savedefault'.
# WARNING: If you are using dmraid do not use 'savedefault' or your
# array will desync and will not let you boot your system.
default 0
## timeout sec
# Set a timeout, in SEC seconds, before automatically booting the default entry
# (normally the first entry defined).
timeout 3
## hiddenmenu
# Hides the menu by default (press ESC to see the menu)

# Pretty colours
color cyan/blue white/blue
## password ['--md5'] passwd
# If used in the first section of a menu file, disable all interactive editing
