Bug description:
  did a dist-upgrade from 12.04 to 12.10 and than from 12.10 to 13.04
  Kernel did not upgrade because of an inconsistency in kernel modules and memtest86+
  tried to download the latest kernel modules from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.8.10-raring/
  copied header modules and kernel modules and generic headers.
  did dpkg -i which resulted in compiled modules. Grub failed however with:
