Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: update-manager
Just updated from Edgy to Feisty. My Edgy kernel (2.6.17-10-generic)
still appears on the grub bootlist, even though it is obsolete and (more
importantly) panics just as it boots. I suggest removing old kernels
from the system on upgrade, or at least placing some kind of warning
("*deprecated*" or something similar) in the list so that the user is
not fooled into thinking they will work correctly across the upgrade.
** Affects: update-manager (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed
