I've attached the relevant section of /var/log/installer/syslog
It may be worth noting these error messages in syslog:
Sep 13 07:15:49 os-prober: debug: running
/usr/lib/os-probes/50mounted-tests on /dev/mapper/monk-root
Sep 13 07:15:49 finish-install: grub-probe: error: no such disk.
Sep 13 07:15:49 os-prober: debug: running
/usr/lib/os-probes/50mounted-tests on /dev/mapper/monk-root2
Sep 13 07:15:50 finish-install: grub-probe: error: no such disk.
It seems to be claiming that /dev/mapper/monk-root and
/dev/mapper/monk-root2 don't exist. Those are the two partitions that
have the other Linux installed in them -- the two I would have expected
os-prober to find.
Interestingly, it finds /dev/mapper/monk-home just fine. One difference
between the two "root" partitions and the "home" partition is that I
told the partitioner to mount the "home" partition on /home, but I never
mentioned the two "root" partitions at all in the partitioner.
I wonder if I gave them mount points and told the partitioner to mount
them, would os-prober be able to find them?
