Well, JIC, make sure yoyr /boot/grub entries look like this.

ls -l /boot/grub/[gm]*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    8 May  9  2008 /boot/grub/grub.conf ->
menu.lst
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1108 Apr  2 21:33 /boot/grub/menu.lst

I'm not sure why it's set this way, probably some historical reason.

I only mention because I don't even know which the update process
affects. If they aren't linked, I guess that might cause a problem.
