BURG updates, but doesn't show up in boot up GRUB screen

Question

I recently updated the Linux kernel (via the Update Manager) to 3.0.0-13. I am running Ubuntu 11.10 using BURG.

Everything loaded correctly, BURG updated correctly. But when I reboot, when the GRUB screen comes on the monitor it only reflects 3.0.0-12.

I reloaded the Linux Kernel 3.0.0-13. Did the "update-burg" (see the results below), rebooted and still it loads GRUB window with the 3.0.0-12 kernel.

What am I doing wrong, or has anyone had this problem?

How do i fix this, I don't want to go mucking around with GRUB as I really don't know that much about it (i.e. manually configuring the GRUB/BURG files).

Your title is slightly confusing, but I would try three things.

• Go into the Software Center and search your version number (3.0.0-12) and uninstall the old kernel.

• If it's BURG that's the problem, you can at least test that it's right by running burg-emu in a terminal. Otherwise, make sure that it's also installed on the drive that boots up, which is more than likely the first one:

  sudo burg-install ("hd0")
  sudo update-burg

• Get GRUB Customizer (works with BURG) to manually check and modify which boot items are listed.

  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:danielrichter2007/grub-customizer
  sudo apt-get update
  sudo apt-get install grub-customizer
