Well, apparently when I installed Ubuntu it didn't create grub.conf in the
/boot/grub directory so all I can give you is the entry from my menu.lst
file. I run Debian on my desktop and server and I've got a grub.conf file in
the /boot/grub directory in addition to the rest of the stuff, I don't know
why I don't have that file with this Ubuntu install. (does Ubuntu put it
elsewhere?)
