I installed a new drive. With all that space I decided to install Ubuntu Kooky Koala or whatever it's called, and also openSUSE 11.2 m6. They merrily installed (I used all defaults during the install process)... both installs saw the existing 11.1 install and offered to add it to GRUB. On reboot though, I get the 11.2 GRUB menu which only has 11.2 and 11.1 in the menu... no Ubuntu Koalas. If I pull the old drive out, then Ubuntu boots fine. Put it back in... and the Koala is hiding. OK, I can deal with this as it's just Ubuntu putting it's boot bit on the wrong drive - the hard part is guessing which drive the MBR is hiding on.
