I have no clue about mondo... But the thing is that grub-legacy (I think it is still plane grub) uses menu.lst, and grub-legacy is the default grub used by debian... But grub-pc (used to be grub2 some time back, and in unstable it changed to grub-pc) uses grub.cfg instead... If you use grub-pc/grub2, then menu.lst is no longer updated by "update-grub", and any time you "update-grub", what gets updated is grub.cfg...
