[solved] GRUB with Debian + Fedora
[solved] GRUB with Debian + Fedora
My main operating system is Debian 9. On a separate partition on the same hard drive I have installed Fedora 28. After Fedora was installed it was the first option in the GRUB list. In order to make Debian the first, I tried sudo update-grub and then sudo grub-install /dev/sda. Debian then became not the first but the only option -- Fedora had disappeared. Is there any way to add Fedora to GRUB without re-installing it?

Re: GRUB with Debian + Fedora
Unable to sleep (a common effect of Parkinson's Disease), I decided to install Fedora again. When that was done and I rebooted, I found that Debian had disappeared from the options. Now I can boot only into Fedora and do not know how to restore the GRUB in Debian.
Re: [solved] GRUB with Debian + Fedora
It turned out to be straightforward. I remembered that the Debian installation CD has a rescue mode. GRUB was re-installed and then updated in the manner you specified -- after I had checked and found that os-prober was present. Thank you.
