**RebornOS** , **grub** does not see the other operating systems.

Correction of the problem.

Open with `sudo nano / etc / default / grub`  
and I added `GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER =" false`  
Save and close the file.  
Finally I ran `grub-mkconfig -o / boot / grub / grub.cfg`  
and it worked.

Hi @ste. We are aware. Grub does not run `os-prober` by default. The same is true in other Arch based distros as well (at least when I checked). However, we may enable os-prober in the future, considering a lot of the users use it anyway.

Also, below are the correct instructions:

Follow the below steps on RebornOS:

1. Install os-prober:

```bash
sudo pacman -S --needed os-prober

```

1. Enable os-prober in Grub:

```bash
sudo gedit /etc/default/grub

```

And uncomment/edit/add this entry:

```bash
GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false

```

Make sure that there is no # before the entry.  
Save the file and exit.

1. Regenerate grub.cfg and reboot:

```bash
sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
reboot

```

hi @shivanandvp. I understand what you are saying, but on a laptop I have win7 for professional reasons and ReborOS, so I needed a solution and after searching I came up with it.

Thanks anyway  
Keep up the good work
