The bootup with an old kernel, but an otherwise newer OS, creates a hard-to-diagnose situation where the system mostly works but has lots of tricky bugs. It's OK to give a warning rather than actually refuse to boot. This bug may be a matter more for grub than update manager, as the warning should be issued whether or not update-manager edited menu.lst -- update-manager/grub should warn about old kernels ahead of the automatically generated ones https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/414943 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
