Thanks for confirming.

Did you use manual partitioning and made sure not to wipe the extra OS
installation? In any case, I don't think we have support to detect other
installations and list them in Grub, but I may be wrong?

Oh not nice. You still have the TTY available by pressing CTRL-ALT-F3 or
so I guess.

Closing this one as the installer issue per se is fixed.

Thanks,

Mathieu
