I have Ubuntu loaded on my sda partition, Mint on my sdd. Ubuntu's Grub isn't seeing that Mint is installed, so I can't boot it. How do I fix Grub so I can boot into either one?

What is the correct way to dual boot ubuntu & mint?

  • We only support official releases of Ubuntu. Mint is not one of them. – Rinzwind Feb 25 '16 at 12:58

    does `sudo update-grub` doesn't work? – Thomas15v Feb 25 '16 at 13:02
  • Voting to close this question as off topic because 1) Contains more of a question relating to Grub, than Ubuntu, and 2) Refers to a question about Linux Mint, which is not supported on this site – David Feb 25 '16 at 13:06

Using a live Ubuntu cd And running boot-repair should fix the issue.

After you have loaded the live cd in "try mode".

open a terminal (ctl alt t) Then run the following command one by one to install the boot repair. Add boot-repair to the repository

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yannubuntu/boot-repair

Update the package 

sudo apt-get update

Next install boot-repair

sudo apt-get install -y boot-repair

Upgarde and run.

sudo apt-get upgrade &&  boot-repair

Or select it by System->Aministration->Boot Repair.
