nope
HARDY is OK - For me - but this is not a general rule - I'm not the
comparison element, so the this bug should be investigated because seem to
be critical

Morgan - the point is that an kernel upgrade ( so an Ubuntu upgrade ) will
rewrite your boot menu, even is customized - your problem can be from
menu.lst too ( but sure ..can be from the wrong MBR location as you suggest
here )

My menu.lst was customized but an recent upgrade rewrite my menu.lst so for
next boot I can't see my XP installation on grub list so I need to repair my
menu.lst by hand. This is a potential bug too - because on the upgrade
proces not tell me in clear terms about "what" configuration will change ( I
was asked to choose between the producer config file or to keep actual file
[but no reference about what file] )
