Hi everyone, I have a triple-boot of Windows Vista, Ubuntu 10.4, and Mandriva 2010. After a re-installation of Ubuntu I have been unable to boot Mandriva (it doesn't appear on the boot menu). I could sure use some help with this. Following is some boot info that I downloaded:

## DO NOT UNCOMMENT THEM, Just edit them to your needs

## ## Start Default Options ##
## default kernel options
## default kernel options for automagic boot options
## If you want special options for specific kernels use kopt_x_y_z
## where x.y.z is kernel version. Minor versions can be omitted.
## e.g. kopt=root=/dev/hda1 ro
## kopt_2_6_8=root=/dev/hdc1 ro
## kopt_2_6_8_2_686=root=/dev/hdc2 ro
# kopt=root=UUID=84c3195d-b758-49d4-985c-ece79f2f8c05 ro

## default grub root device
## e.g. groot=(hd0,0)
# groot=84c3195d-b758-49d4-985c-ece79f2f8c05

## should update-grub create alternative automagic boot options
## e.g. alternative=true
## alternative=false
# alternative=true

## should update-grub lock alternative automagic boot options
## e.g. lockalternative=true
## lockalternative=false
# lockalternative=false

## additional options to use with the default boot option, but not with the
## alternatives
## e.g. defoptions=vga=791 resume=/dev/hda5
# defoptions=quiet splash

## should update-grub lock old automagic boot options
## e.g. lockold=false
## lockold=true
# lockold=false

## Xen hypervisor options to use with the default Xen boot option
# xenhopt=

## Xen Linux kernel options to use with the default Xen boot option
# xenkopt=console=tty0

## altoption boot targets option
## multiple altoptions lines are allowed
## e.g. altoptions=(extra menu suffix) extra boot options
## altoptions=(recovery) single
# altoptions=(recovery mode) single

## controls how many kernels should be put into the menu.lst
## only counts the first occurence of a kernel, not the
## alternative kernel options
## e.g. howmany=all
## howmany=7
# howmany=all

## specify if running in Xen domU or have grub detect automatically
## update-grub will ignore non-xen kernels when running in domU and vice versa
## e.g. indomU=detect
## indomU=true
## indomU=false
# indomU=detect

## should update-grub create memtest86 boot option
## e.g. memtest86=true
## memtest86=false
# memtest86=true

## should update-grub adjust the value of the default booted system
## can be true or false
# updatedefaultentry=false

## should update-grub add savedefault to the default options
## can be true or false
# savedefault=false

## ## End Default Options ##

Assuming you can boot into your reinstalled Ubuntu, try updating GRUB :

sudo update-grub

then reboot and see if the GRUB menu shows Mandriva

Grub2 numbers partitions differently. The os prober is copying the boot stanza from old grub and it then has the incorrect partition.

menuentry "linux (on /dev/sda5)" {
insmod ext2
set root='(hd0,5)'
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 6dfd1df8-95e9-4769-83e0-755984ed4aad
linux /boot/vmlinuz BOOT_IMAGE=linux root=UUID=6dfd1df8-95e9-4769-83e0-755984ed4aad resume=UUID=e3b2a6ec-ae10-462e-b967-5d926420663b splash=silent vga=788
initrd (hd0,4)/boot/initrd.img
}

Change this to either nothing as it is not required once set root is set or (hd0,5)

Copy into 40_custom and run the sudo update-grub. If it works you can then copy all the other stanzas and turn off the osprober so you do not have duplicate entries.

Paste above into this and edit:
gksudo gedit /etc/grub.d/40_custom
sudo update-grub

gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub
GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=true
or
sudo chmod a-x /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober
