This bug was fixed in the package grub2 - 1.99-20ubuntu1

---------------
grub2 (1.99-20ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low

  * Resynchronise with Debian.  Remaining changes:
    - Adjust for default Ubuntu boot options ("quiet splash").
    - Default to hiding the menu; holding down Shift at boot will show it.
    - Set a monochromatic theme and an appropriate background for Ubuntu.
    - Apply Ubuntu GRUB Legacy changes to legacy update-grub script.
    - Fix backslash-escaping in merge_debconf_into_conf.
    - Remove "GNU/Linux" from default distributor string.
    - Add crashkernel option.
    - Bypass menu unless other OSes are installed or Shift is pressed.
    - Allow Shift to interrupt 'sleep --interruptible'.
    - Reduce visual clutter in normal mode.
    - Remove verbose messages printed before reading configuration.
    - Suppress kernel/initrd progress messages, except in recovery mode.
    - Show the boot menu if the previous boot failed.
    - Don't generate device.map during grub-install or grub-mkconfig.
    - Adjust upgrade version checks for Ubuntu.
    - Suppress "GRUB loading" message unless Shift is held down.
    - Adjust versions of grub-doc and grub-legacy-doc conflicts.
    - Fix LVM/RAID probing in the absence of /boot/grub/device.map.
    - Look for .mo files in /usr/share/locale-langpack first.
    - Build-depend on qemu-kvm rather than qemu-system for grub-pc tests.
    - Check hardware support before using gfxpayload=keep.
    - Put second and subsequent Linux menu entries in a submenu.
    - Preferred resolution detection for VBE.
    - Set vt.handoff=7 for smooth handoff to kernel graphical mode.
    - Update default/grub.md5sum to include maverick's default md5sum.
    - In recovery mode, add nomodeset to the Linux kernel arguments, and
      remove the 'set gfxpayload=keep' command.
    - Skip Windows os-prober entries on Wubi systems, and suppress the menu
      by default if those are the only other-OS entries.
    - Handle probing striped DM-RAID devices.
    - Replace 'single' by 'recovery' when friendly-recovery is installed.
    - Use qemu -no-kvm in tests for now to work around LP #947597.
    - Disable cursor as early as possible in grub_main.

grub2 (1.99-20) unstable; urgency=low

  * Backport kFreeBSD support from upstream to 4k_sectors.patch.

Title:
  Not all OS shown in grub-install screen at end of installation

Status in “grub2” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “os-prober” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Testing Precise beta2 alternate install. I have two internal SATA
  drives. My working OS are all on /dev/sdb and I'm installing to
  /dev/sda

  At the screen where the user is asked where to install Grub, not all
  the OS on my machine are being listed. It mentions two of them - Vista
  and Lucid - but doesn't refer to the existing Precise install on the
  same drive.

  This wasn't happening in beta1. At that time, though, I had working OS
  on both drives. (Should that make a difference?)

  Although all OS show up in the Grub boot menu on reboot, this message
  could cause some users to think that there's an error.
