Grub: Error 15 File not found
Hi,
I get this when I boot in Ubuntu 8.10 on updated kernels. I only have one entry in the grub list that works - the original one form the 8.10 upgrade/install.
I started getting this problem in 8.04 then I upgraded to 8.10 (which removed most of the entries from menu.lst) and left one working entry 2.6.27-7-generic.
All later kernel updates give me the Error 15 but they all look the same.
I have checked the /boot directory and all of the files look legit (see below)
Is there some way that I can work out which file grub can't find or get it to recognised the newer files.
Thanks
