On a newly installed Debian Testing system, I installed Fedora 13 in a different partition but chose not to install the boot loaded since I wanted to use Debian's boot loader for all OSes.
Now when I do update-grub in Debian, it detects all OSes installed in the hard drives connected to the system (Windows XP, Windows 7, Fedor 9), but does not detect Fedora 13. I had to manually add the stanza lines for F13 to get its option in the grub boot list.
I am using LVM. F13 is installed with its / mounted on /dev/mapper/vg1-lv8 and its boot on /dev/sdc5. Update-grub appears to miss detecting the kernels in /dev/sdc5 altogether. Any idea why is that? Is there is a bug in Fedora 13?
Thanks.
I have no idea what has changed since I posted this. But now udpate-grub is detecting F13! I haven't really changed anything in grub and nor in os-prober. I just did a upgrade of my Debian system last night and now this stuff works. I wish I knew what has changed.
