I was told on linux debian forum
I strongly suspect that your quite old version of grub2 is the culprit on this (Lenny had grub - legacy - as default).
Can someone here help me identify my issue and help me with a workarround ?
Its a webserver(dedicated), and i have SSH access to it..
All help most appriciated
