[Python-apps-team] Bug#459203: startupmanger crashes if default entry to boot is bigger than total entries number in menu.lst

Package: startupmanager
Version: 1.9.9-1
Severity: important

Usertags: origin-ubuntu, ubuntu-patch, hardy, patch

If default entry to boot in menu.lst is bigger than the total number of 
entries, startupmanager crashes with "IndexError: list index out of range".

The attached patch fixes the problem exporting 0 as the default entry 
when menu.lst is broken.
