Description of problem: I have a machine with another OS (linux) in a LV. When installing grub2 boot loader the boot entries are not found. However these are correctly recognized by grub2's os-prober once I boot into the installed Fedora. I tried first without selecting disks containing the other OS (as I did not want installation process to touch them) and when existing OS was not recognized then with them still to no avail. After I activated the LVs by hand they were finally recognized. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda-20.25.1-1 grub2-2.00-25.fc20 grubby-8.28-1.fc20 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. install F20 in dual boot with another Linux installed on LV Actual results: - the existing system is not found Expected results: - installer should find other OSes (at least on all selected and/or local disks) Additional info: Final Requirements say: > Windows dual boot > > The installer must be able to install into free space alongside > an existing clean Windows installation and install a bootloader > which can boot into both Windows and Fedora. Though I understand that is a common use case, sad it does not require other GNU/Linux distros as well. We should invest more into promoting Fedora to other distros' users too.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 20 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 20. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '20'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 20 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 20 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-06-23. Fedora 20 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug.
