Hi Phillip, sda1 and sda2 are old installations (guess 12.04 and 11.04) which I keep around for reference.
I started a Quandal installation in sdb1, and later sdc1 and sdc2. Currently sdb1 is pointed to by the MBR used by the BIOS (sdb I guess). If I would update sdb1's grub.cfg file the file would contain references to sdc1 and sdc2 (as well as others) but no menu would be presented by grub to actually access either of sdc1 or sdc2. Access to any Quantal installation is shown as "Ubuntu" and in the background sdb1 would win from sdc1 and sdc2 if grub.cfg was made with the installation on sdb1. I'm currently using sdc2's grub.cfg file in scb1's /boot/grub directory. This by the way forces me to use the enter key because grub does not have the timeout of 10 seconds anymore because it thinks it failed the last boot. Probably a first try would be to de-anonymize the various Quantal installations (e.g. in stead of Ubuntu make it Ubuntu sdb1, etc). Maybe then the various installations can at least be selected from the grub menu. The MBR to be pointing to the installation of my choice would also help, scd2 will probably become my default boot for a while. (the timeout of 10 seconds to always work is a thing I would like to know as well) Greetings, Gerben -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1069470 Title: second install of quantal not reached To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1069470/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
