[OpenIndiana-discuss] Multiboot : OpenIndiana, Devuan, LMDE4

[joel lapointe]

Hi

Here is the situation :

  1.  Tried OpenIndiana liveDVD, I liked it.
  2.  Decided to install it on a free partition. Other partitions are occupied by W10, LMDE4, Devuan
  3.  Rebooted to try the new install. Worked great.
  4.  The other partitions weren't present on the boot menu
  5.  Decided to boot a LMDE4 LiveDVD so I can boot-repair. It went well, however, the OpenIndiana partition wasn't there
  6.  I tried to seek a solution over the Internet. I saw a Solaris 10 menu entry. I did not implement it because it could be different.
  7.  os-prober did not see it either.

So here the fdisk -l result :

I'd like to say that os-prober did not see it either.

Thank you!
