  If running 'sudo update-grub' does not add a boot entry to 
/boot/grub/menu.lst for the Ubuntu 9.10 kernel (2.6.31), please follow the 
instructions there.

  I just upgraded 9.04 to 9.10
  
  System still boots the old kernel 2.6.28-13-generic instead of current
  one 2.6.31..
  
  If I run reinstall of linux-image for 2.6.13 then grub says it updated
  menu.lst, but it did not.
  
  Lets look:
  
  uname -a
  Linux lcwood 2.6.28-13-generic #45-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jun 30 22:12:12 UTC 2009 
x86_64 GNU/Linux
  
  [...]
  Testing for an existing GRUB menu.lst file ... found: /boot/grub/menu.lst
  Searching for splash image ... none found, skipping ...
  [...]
  Found kernel: /vmlinuz-2.6.31-14-generic
  Found kernel: /vmlinuz-2.6.28-13-generic
  Found kernel: /memtest86+.bin
  Updating /boot/grub/menu.lst ... done
  [...]
  
  And then:
  
  r...@lcwood:~# cat /boot/grub/menu.lst | grep 31
  r...@lcwood:~#
  so nothing.
  
  Attaching full output of installer on reinstall, and full menu.lst after
  that.
