Title:
  Grub2 would not install with other versions present

Status in grub-installer package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I expected that Grub wouild write another copy and supercede the
  existing version.  I have OpenSuse and Deepin on the same machine
  along with Windows 10 so I need grub to update.  Can I modify the
  existing to pull in Ubuntu?  If so is it a simple procedure?  Is the
  data structure that has been written to this point sufficient to start
  the kernel?
