Renate, here is what you need to do to work around the problem. You will need to know wher hardware device Maverick is installed on, e.g., /dev/sda2 - yours may be the same, or it may be different.

Then, when booted into Natty, run command "sudo fsck /dev/sda2" <== Maks sure to use the correct device for your system

This will fix your Maverick filesystem, then you can run "sudo update-grub" in Natty and it will detect and configure Maverick, too.
