Removing symbolic link initrd.img.old you may need to re-run your boot loader[grub]

Asked by Warwick Greenham on 2009-01-29

I have no real idea of what I am doing but up to now, have been able to get by with the answers I have found, it has been a great experience. My problem is that after installing up-grades, I did a kernel removal and on completion I found the following notice, Removing symbolic link initrd.img.old you may need to re-run your boot loader[grub] can some one help with an explanation of what it means and how to do it. Below is the message.
The link /vmlinuz.old is a damaged link
Removing symbolic link vmlinuz.old
 you may need to re-run your boot loader[grub]
The link /initrd.img.old is a damaged link
Removing symbolic link initrd.img.old
 you may need to re-run your boot loader[grub]
Regards, Warwick.

Solucion

Just do :-

$ sudo update-grub
Generating grub.cfg ...
Found background image: /usr/share/images/grub/Lake_mapourika_NZ.tga
Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-3.2.0-2-amd64
Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-3.2.0-2-amd64
Found memtest86+ image: /boot/memtest86+.bin
Found memtest86+ multiboot image: /boot/memtest86+_multiboot.bin
done
Now at my end I have debian and have also some image for the grub boot screen hence its saying what its saying.
