Neither the XP, nor the 9.04 installation showed up in the menu on an Alpha 5 install. The machine simply booted automatically into 9.10 without pausing to ask.
The one quirk of my setup is that my 9.04 is installed on an ext4 partition. Other than that it is a vanilla Jaunty/XP system. Updating packages naturally fixed the problem as it runs update-grub and update initramfs so it may have been a flaw with the packages on the Alpha 5 CD. Needs testing though. 2009/9/8 Evan Dandrea <[email protected]>: > Can you clarify what you mean by "failed to make them available on the > boot menu"?
