Resetting menu.lst in GRUB vers 1.9
After installing Windows 7 I didn't know how to restore GRUB and I installed a new Ubuntu 10.4, so that now the former installation is in 6th position on the booting screen.
I tried to edit the "menu.lst" but, now in Grub 1.9 I can't find the "menu.lst".
Could someone help me?

Hello and welcome!
Ubuntu 10.04 uses GRUB2, which is different from GRUB Legacy and it doesn't have a menu.lst file. Instead it has a grub.cfg file but you shouldn't edit it directly. Check these HowTos for the info you need to work with GRUB2:

You can change default OS in GRUB Menu by editing /etc/default/grub file. Set GRUB_DEFAULT value to 6 in that file and execute sudo update-grub command.
It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.
