I think this bug is what I have been seeing also. However, in my system Ubuntu 13.04 is installed on SDA1 and an older Ubuntu 12.10 is installed on SDB1 on which I hadn't installed new NVIDIA drivers for the Nvidia GTX650 card I bought and installed AFTER I'd updated my system to the 13.04 which is on SDA1
I use Grub2. Every so often when my system boots I pick Ubuntu - which is the first option and normally ubuntu 13.04 would boot. However, every so often when I pick "Ubuntu" my first option ... for some reason the Ubuntu 12.10 boots instead. I can always tell because my graphics is screwed up and when I reboot... I see it shutting down Ubuntu 12.10 ... not 13.04 as I would expect. I've attached my grub.cfg. The UUID of both the "Ubuntu" entry (1st grub entry) and the "Ubuntu 12.10" entry (near end of the file) are identical? ** Attachment added: "my grub.cfg showing duplicate UUID" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1065196/+attachment/3741333/+files/mygrub.cfg -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1065196 Title: update-grub sets wrong kernel root for linux dual boot systems To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1065196/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
