The differences as I see are here :-
menu.lst shows :-
title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.27-7-generic
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.27-7-generic root=UUID=some UUID ro
initrd /initrd.img-2.6.27-7-generic
### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/10_linux ###
set root=(hd0,1)
search --fs-uuid --set some different UUID
menuentry "Ubuntu, linux 2.6.27-7-generic" {
linux /vmlinuz-2.6.27-7-generic root=UUID=same UUID as given in
menu.lst ro quiet splash
initrd /initrd.img-2.6.27-7-generic
}
Now the issue is
a. Why does it set root at (hd0,1) and not (hd0,0)
b. What is this
search --fs-uuid --set some different UUID
Why there is some different UUID here
Obviously in both the files just from a security concern I have not put
up the UUID's which are given therein.

Obviously, the device where all the action should be is at :-
/dev/sda1 1.9G 48M 1.8G 3% /boot
I know I have kept much much more than ever its going to be needed but
that's another thing altogether.
If anybody needs some more info. feel free to ask the same here.
