Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: grub2

After upgrading from grub-pc 1.98+20100804-5ubuntu3 (maverick) to
1.98+20100804-6ubuntu1 (natty), GRUB no longer finds my kernel, because
grub.cfg was rewritten to look for the kernel in /boot/boot (/boot is a
separate partition):

 menuentry 'Ubuntu, with Linux 2.6.36-1-generic' --class ubuntu --class 
gnu-linux --class gnu --class os {
        recordfail
        insmod part_msdos
        insmod ext2
        set root='(hd0,msdos6)'
        search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set b9bb5774-dff3-4c7f-9399-f14513d93c41
-       linux   /vmlinuz-2.6.36-1-generic root=/dev/mapper/btree-ubuntu ro 
quiet splash
-       initrd  /initrd.img-2.6.36-1-generic
+       linux   /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.36-1-generic root=/dev/mapper/btree-ubuntu ro 
quiet splash
+       initrd  /boot/initrd.img-2.6.36-1-generic
 }

Downgrading back to -5ubuntu3 reverses the change and lets the system
boot normally.
