Hi,

> Yes, that fixes it. The second entry I mentioned still gets changed (hda12 -> hda1) but without better knowledge I suppose that may be because for some interesting reason grubconf doesn't seem to find my hda12 at all (at least it doesn't appear in the GUI). It might be something curious regarding my system so I decided not to report it until I have time to look into it further.

I believe you're right ... it is most likely because it doesn't find
that partition. 

I don't think its anything curious about your system ... only that you
have 12+ partitions. 

I'm guessing my [ass]umption about having no more than 9 partitions is
applied somewhere else in the code. I will take a look at it when I get
a chance. 

Thanks for pointing this out!

- Joe
