[Bug 1409209] [NEW] GRUB shows "Ubuntu" rather than flavor name

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I installed Lubuntu 15.04 Vervet (Live image 2015-01-09) as a Manual
installation (choosing "Something else...") to install the test Lubuntu
alongside a machine that already has Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and Windows 7.

After installation, Lubuntu was mistakenly listed as "Ubuntu" in the
GRUB menu. The existing Ubuntu installation, which had formerly been
labeled as "Ubuntu" was now (accurately) labeled as Ubuntu 14.04.

To reproduce:

Install Lubuntu alongside other existing operating systems using the
"Something else..." option and configuring your partitions in the
ubiquity installer.

Expected result:

Grub lists your new installation as "Lubuntu" and the other operating
systems as their correct names.

Actual result:

Grub lists my new lubuntu installation as "Ubuntu" (only) and the other
operating systems correctly (for me, Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS and Windows 7).
