Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: grub2
Testing this on a fully updated Natty beta. Running update-grub (from the Natty
installer, or after a kernel upgrade, or manually) doesn't detect the system I
have installed on my sda11 partition (it's a Maverick system, my main
production system). It detects correctly another "experimental" Ubuntu system,
and the Vista partition.
If I manually mount the sda11 partition somewhere, and then manually run "sudo
update-grub", then everything works as expected and it detects my Maverick
install.
My partitioning is a little complex (I have 4 different Linux systems, plus a
Windows system, plus 4 separate data partitions) but this has always worked
fine with previous releases of Ubuntu.
My release:
cristian@cristian-HP-Pavilion-dv2700-Notebook-PC:~$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu Natty (development branch)
Release: 11.04
Grub version:
1.99~rc1-8ubuntu1
What I expect to happen:
I expect, when running upgrade-grub (or when installing Natty, for that matter)
that all my installed system are detected.
What happens instead:
My Maverick system on sda11 isn't detected. I have to manually mount sda11
somewhere and then re-run update-grub to have it detected.
