Athani is still having a problem:
Hi,

I did type 'sudo upgrade-from-grub-legacy' in the terminal. But I get the
following in the terminal window and I can't do anything after that except
to close the terminal window. The "OK" at the bottom of the window is not
click-able.

 │ In order to replace the Legacy version of GRUB in your system, it is
▒
 │ recommended that /boot/grub/menu.lst is adjusted to chainload GRUB 2
▒
 │ from your existing GRUB Legacy setup.  This step may be automaticaly
▒
 │ performed now.
▒

▒
 │ It's recommended that you accept chainloading GRUB 2 from menu.lst, and
▒
 │ verify that your new GRUB 2 setup is functional for you, before you
▒
 │ install it directly to your MBR (Master Boot Record).
▒
 │
▒
 │ In either case, whenever you want GRUB 2 to be loaded directly from MBR,
▒
 │ you can do so by issuing (as root) the following command:
