Simple, run update-grub after you've upgraded your kernel.

Yeah, I am wondering why update-grub can't do that myself. > I have been trying to find out how to get grub updated for both > Debian(Sid) and the recently installed Gutsy(pre-release). Why not just chain load them? Whatever OS, even window$, grub's chain load can boot them fine, as long as the partition is bootable by itself. Ref: http://xpt.sourceforge.net/techdocs/nix/disk/boot/boot06-Grub/ar01s06.html#Editing_the_GRUB_Menu If the partition is not bootable by itself, you can still put an entry in you main menu.lst, eg, configfile (hd1,0)/grub/menu.list so as to refer to its boot menu from the main boot partition.
