I run Linux Mint based on Intrepid and in the Grub menu there is a "Last
Successful Boot" option.

The grub entry looks thusly:

title        Linux Mint 6, kernel Last successful boot
root        (hd0,5)
kernel        /boot/last-good-boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/sda6 ro quiet splash
last-good-boot
quiet

Anybody have any idea what they are using to accomplish this, and if it can
help with a problem like David described?

Regards
