Select OS to boot into on reboot

[multilingus at gmx.de]

The simplest method to install a multiboot system is,  I think,  to use the command update-grub when there are different os on the hdd.
In a terminal window you can start it. It recognizes the os and it writes a new file for grub.
The next time you reboot a list will be shown with all os you can select. Moving up and down you can select your favorite system and start it with return!
