I have Squeeze and Wheezy. I uninstalled Wheezy's grub, but then Squeeze's grub did not detect kernel upgrades in Wheezy. After reinstalling Wheezy's grub, things worked right again. That's why I concluded that Wheezy's /boot/grub/grub.cfg is needed. > If "/boot/grub/grub.cfg" exists in Ubuntu, os-prober uses its kernel > options in the Debian "/etc/grub.d/30_os-prober" section. Yep, I once moved Wheezy to another partition. Wheezy's grub.cfg still contained the old partition, and Squeeze's os-prober adopted that. I had to correct the partition in Wheezy's grub.cfg to get it working right again. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
