Description of problem: I wanted to dual-boot; so, i tried to install Fedora 13 on my PC. I chose the shrink option during the installation, having had Ubuntu 10.10 use the entire disk. Anaconda shrank the drive but could not detect the existing Ubuntu OS. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 13 How reproducible: Try an install Fedora 13 on a PC already running Ubuntu and has no free partition. Choose the shrink option during the installation Steps to Reproduce: 1. Get a PC running Ubuntu and has no free partition/space 2. Choose the shrink option when installing Fedora 3. Restart the machine after installation Actual results: You would not be able to load Ubuntu again. The bootloader do not give option to choose either Fedora or Ubuntu. The PC would only load Fedora 13. Expected results: The bootloader (grub/2) should list the two OSs to choose one from. Additional info:
Some more details: Partitions: /dev/sda1 - Ubuntu install (partition set to bootable) /dev/sda2 - Fedora /boot (500MB) /dev/sda3 - Fedora PV containing LVs for /home and / grub was somehow created without a grub.conf file, which I recreated with grub and some magic. It correctly discovered the fedora install but did not inform of the bpoot flag on sda1 and seemingly completely ignored it.
Could you attach: * install logs from /var/log/anaconda* * /etc/grub.conf What version of Ubuntu?
