Right, let me try to be crystal clear. You *do not* need to install GRUB to the MBR to avoid this bug. You *do* need to install a newer version of GRUB to wherever you originally put GRUB. This bug occurs when people have an old GRUB image *somewhere* that they're using to boot, but never update

You're running grub2 so it's called grub.cfg not menu.lst. As far as the menu is concerned, perhaps https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel- announce/2009-August/000599.html will help. One thing I forgot to say there is that pressing Escape during boot with that configuration should bring
