I have Ubuntu 11.04 dual boot with xp. I have upgraded to natty from ubuntu 10.11 by using command do-release-upgrade
some months ago.
The update manager asked for some updations included the package "linux-headers-2.6.38-11". I installed this package then.
I used command uname -r
. It says current running version is 2.6.36.
By the command grub-install -v
I had come to know that I'm using grub legacy only , not grub 2
Then I tried sudo update-grub
and I verified that menu.lst file has an entry for for all kernels available in local disk. /boot/grub/menu.lst
contains both kernels 2.6.36 & 2.6.38 and some other entries.The content of menu.lst is here
But on reboot the grub menu doesn't show the newer version of kernel. How to make kernel 2.6.38-11-generic as default kernel ?
Even though grub 2 is default to natty, I hadn't. Why ?
What are the things should I check before my future upgradation(to coming ubuntu 11.11) ?
How to make a kernel (in this case 2.6.38-11-generic) as default kernel ?
