I tried the upgrade and now the dual boot machine is just a single

What is the other boot? Windows?
What is booted up? Lucid?
Have you checked, if booted to Lucid, if grub is now grub2?
(grub-install -v ==> gives 1.98)
After the upgrade it should still be grub legacy because the upgrade
doesn't change the grub version (unless something has changed recently).
If still at grub-legacy, (but recommend you upgrade to grub2, install
grub-pc)
Well, I wouldn't necessarily recommend to change from grub legacy to
grub2 due to the problems discussed on launchpad [1] and slashdot [2].
The problem Vic Main described seems not to be related with the boot
loader and therefore it probably wouldn't help to move to grub2. However
I have no idea, what the problem could be.
