Re: problems with grub

You have a line that says: default=10
I assume that you have at least 10 kernel boot entries on your grub
menu. Also, the "default" number starts counting from 0 and not from
1.

Here is my entry on Ubuntu; perhaps it can help in some way. Notice
the 'boot' option after savedefault.

title        Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.15-27-amd64-k8 Previous
root        (hd0,1)
kernel        /boot/vmlinuz.old root=/dev/sda2 ro quiet splash
initrd        /boot/initrd.img.old
savedefault
boot
