Title:
  If more than one ubuntu installation on separate discs are present and
  a new linux image loads grub does not automatically look for the new
  image unless it is on the first boot disc

Status in “grub2” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: grub

  I have three SATA hard drives. sda has Ubuntu 10.04-x86 on it, sdb
  Windows 7 and sdc Ubuntu 10.10-AMD64. The system boots from sda and if
  that version of Ubuntu updates a new linux image Grub correctly enters
  it in the menu.

  If the Development version (on sdc) is upgraded with a new linux image
  the menu is not upgraded. This can lead to problems and it is
  necessary to run a session in 10.04 (on sda) and run "update-grub".
  The menu is then correct and everything is stable and fine.

  I am now in 10.10 and the version of Grub is grub-pc 1.98 but I
  imagine the problem is with the version in 10.04. This has been
  regularly upgraded.

  I have had this problem for about six weeks and I have waited to
  submit a bug report as I thought it might be transitory.
