I installed HH from the DVD several months ago on my b drive (Suse 10.0 was on a) and after using it I decided to migrate everything to HH. I did that and then installed HH on the a drive intending to use it for Upgrades and other things. The install went well and it recognized my b drive as another system and added all the versions of Linux I had had in GRUB. Today I ran the updates to 24-22 on both systems. The GRUB for the original install did not update to 24-22 while the new on did add it to its part but not the original. How do I update GRUB for my original install? Here is some info on my system:

The above were run from my new system on the A drive.
I have both the Unbutu DVD and a Super GRUB CD.
