    Well, I still cannot make a backup of my BE.

    For now the system works. I think I’ll just have to do a fresh install and reimport my storage pool when I really need to upgrade.

        You may need to construct your menu.lst yourself, then.  Here's a few sample entries.  Note the up-front globals (like default entry), followed by specific entries.  HOPEFULLY that's all you have to do.  Otherwise, you may need to re-run installgrub(1M).
