I think the "correct" solution for something like this would be disk
encryption on the partitions/disks containing the OS you want to
protect. Otherwise, someone who has access to boot into the unprotected
OS (or some other protected OS) could still access the protected OS; all
they would need is the proper filesystem drivers.

I.e. a password would be required to boot that OS. I did a bunch of
Googling but everything I found mentioned editing 10_Linux and the like
inside /etc/grub.d/, however the files were completely different from any
of the examples or articles I could find.
I realize I could probably edit grub.cfg but that would get overwritten
every kernel update. My friend is running Ubuntu 14.04 if it matters.
Is this still possible?
Standard grub-mkconfig scripts shipped with upstream grub do not have
support for it. Nor do I see easy way to add this support (how to
identify "specific OS entries"?) So if you need this your best bet is
to maintain grub.cfg manually.
