Public bug reported: I have an Asus A2H (A2500H) laptop that I have set up as dual boot Windows XP & Ubuntu 9.04. For testing purposes I have installed Ubuntu 9.10 RC using Wubi.exe on the Windows XP partition. Thus to run Ubuntu 9.10 RC, I choose Windows XP from the first Grub menu which lists various kernels of 9.04, I then Choose Ubuntu from the second menu for which the alternative is Windows XP. On the third menu, I choose generic Ubuntu with a kernel number (the first choice), followed by all of my Ubuntu 9.04 kernel alternatives.
My problem is that the first choice isn't identified as Ubuntu 9.10, in a manner identical to how it would have been identified in a normal dual boot installation!
