How to add newly installed partition to grub 2.02

[blahman179]

I've had Ubuntu and Windows booting together for a while.

I recently wanted to try out Puppy Arcade, so I created a partition for it and installed it to the newer partition.

The only problem is Puppy Arcade won't show up at boot along side Ubuntu and Windows in grub.

I tried using a Live CD and running Boot Repair, but that disn't work.

Help would be greatly appreciated.

Edit: Running grub-update gives me this;

It doesn't even show up here.

Maybe I installed it wrong?

Perhaps give us the output of:


sudo blkid

Open Gparted (install if not already there) and see if the Puppy partition shows up there.

* Please use code tags for terminal output. See the last link in my signature for how. ;)

This is how it's done.
