I'm fairly new to GRUB2, thus need help to understand it better. I've created a new partition on my HD and installed Ubuntu Natty on it. I wanted the Squeeze GRUB to be in charge and installed Natty GRUB to its own root. I intended then to make Squeeze GRUB to find the new OS and add it to its menu.
I booted into Squeeze and run 'os-prober & update-grub' GRUB did not find newly installed OS. Then I tried to reinstall GRUB by running 'grub-install --recheck /dev/sda' Still no results. Finally I mounted Natty / and then run again 'os-prober & update-grub' To my surprise this time GRUB succeeded to find Natty and added it to the Squeeze GRUB menu. Isn't it a faulty/buggy behaviour? Wasn't GRUB or os-prober supposed to find newly installed OS without it's root being mounted first? Or I misunderstand something here?
