[opensuse-factory] Dual boot gone after upgrade to 12.3 RC1
I recently upgraded my dual boot Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop from openSUSE 12.2 to 12.3 RC1, using the Net Install procedure. The installation went perfectly, but on re-booting my grub2 menu only shows openSUSE and Advanced Options for openSUSE. The Windows 7 option has disappeared. The machine boots from the Root Partition. What do I need to do to reinstate it?

OK, then just recreate grub.cfg using grub2-mkconfig as already suggested. That's not the first time I hear that some OSes were missing after installation. Could you open bug report and attach YaST2 logs? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

The machine boots from the Root Partition.
