Public bug reported: Boot issue if are installed more Ubuntu based distribution on the same SSD
I have more valuable advices for developers how to repair bugs. I successfully repaired bugs. For understanding please look screenshot attachments, how it is repaired. I successfully repaired files and folders in EFI partitions, if I have installed more Ubuntu based partitions. Without this repair, will boot only last installed distributions, and other distribution not possible boot. It is absolutely critical bug. Program os-prober on actual ubuntu based distribution not work correct. It not help with boot. I read a lot of guides from google search how to repair os-prober, but no guide helped me. Bug 1: all Ubuntu based distribution have “ubuntu” name folder in efi partition. How to repair bug: every ubuntu linux distribution must have own folder with own name for example “kubuntu”, “lubuntu”. Bug 2: every Ubuntu based distribution is in UEFI boot menu displayed as “Ubuntu”. Ubuntu based distributions not use program efibootmgr correct. How to repair bug: name – mean correct every Ubuntu based distribution in UEFI boot menu. For example “Lubuntu”, “Kubuntu”. Bug 3: Ubuntu Desktop work most disastrous. Ubuntu Desktop remove efi folders from other previous installed Ubuntu based distributions during installation. It is critical error. I repaired this bug with backup-restore method and rename folders in EFI partition. I repaired this bug with efibootmgr too.
