[Bug 608847] Re: Chainload grub2 fails, wrong partition in grub.cfg

[Phillip Susi]

10.04 has reached end of life and is no longer supported.  If you are
still able to reproduce this on a currently supported release, please
attach your grub.cfg and describe exactly what happens when you try to
boot the other install ( it failed is not an error description ).
