Uchan

It’s been twice my OS boot selection been removed after installing Crunchbang Linux (based on Debian Squeeze). After search on Google, I found this link (although it was meant for ubuntu, but it works fine on me)

Maybe that tutorial a little bit hard to novice user. I found another simple way to do this.

1. Run your favorite console & Install OS Prober program by typing this:

   1	sudo apt-get install os-prober

2. running it using console

   1	sudo os-prober

3. Update your grub by run this command

   1	sudo update-grub

Reboot and it should fix your OS boot selection menu.

PS: if you run sudo command, you’ll be promt to enter your administrator password.
