CentOS - Apr 2012 - error 24 attempt to access block outside of partition

Hi All,

After updating to the latest kernel, I get subject error at grub.  I 
have no idea as to how to fix this.  Booting of the previous kernel is 
fine.  Could someone please help sort this out?  Thank you in advance!!

Phil

Remember that Grub starts counting with 0, not with 1. The default is 
the second stanza, not the first.

Does the file /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-220.13.1.el6.x86_64 exist? Is the 
fiilesystem UUID really b9245ece-994f-44c8-9831-ec24cf865b6e (check with 
tune2fs -l /dev/sda1)?

This is the default. Does the file /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-220.el6.x86_64 
still exist?
