Re: [Xen-users] Problem adding entry to grub on ubuntu



I was confirming that those steps are all you normaly have to do and that the config file should be grub.cfg not grub.conf. Please also check that you have +x (executable) permission on 40_custom otherwise it will not be ran.

If you continue to have problems, show output for dpkg -l "grub*"

I did just that, as I mentioned in my mail. May problem is not that
the entry is not added, it is, my problem is that the entry is ignored
for some reason.
I've tested this by copying another menuentry from grub.conf in to
40:_custom, running update-grub and this entry was displayed upon
boot.
So there is something with my menuentry syntax that causes grub to
ignore it. However I am not given any clues as to whay grub is
ignoring this entry, nor do I find any information on the web.

So what am I missing here?
