Public bug reported: i have three different linux OS on three different partitions sda6, sd7 and sda8. All of them are formatted in bftrs system. At first only the last installed linux was recognized by update-grub. After that i ran os- prober which found my two missing OS...but in grub menu at the beginning if i choose either one of them i get the message: you need to load the kernel first - and then it returns me back to grub menu. my sda8 linux still works normally :( help please
