“While Ubuntu 10.04 LTS is scheduled for release today,
development of this “Lucid Lynx” release has not been as optimal as
many would have liked. There had been many upset over Lucid’s use
of the Linux 2.6.32 kernel rather than the newer 2.6.33 release and
the extensive back-porting that has went on, among other items to
cause concern for some users. Last week they were then hit by a
serious memory leaking issue within the X.Org Server, which
fortunately has now been fixed in time for the release. But now we
are onto a new issue. Rather than the Canonical crew and Ubuntu
developers around the world spending today celebrating the release
of Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, they are busy re-spinning some of the ISOs due
to a new “critical” bug.“Bug #570765 came up earlier this week and it’s bringing up the
fact that when installing Ubuntu 10.04 LTS on a system with another
operating system present, GRUB2 will not show the other operating
system once installed for the dual/multi-boot system. It doesn’t
matter whether the other operating system is Microsoft Windows or
another Linux installation, but the GRUB2 boot-loader doesn’t offer
you the option to boot that OS, just Ubuntu.”
