The problem is that I can't get grub to update and reflect the newly installed LM 20.3. When I start the machine the grub menu shows just LM 19 and LM 17.
Another possibly related wrinkle: In the file system on LM 20.3 there is a /home/user/ folder but there aren't any folders inside /user/ (like documents , downloads ). Could that possibly be all right?
I've tried both:

sudo update-grub

I've also tried several variations on the installation process (from the LM 20.3 live DVD - which boots up and runs fine).
Any Ideas?
