I have got "Ubuntu" as well as "Ubuntu 13.10" in the list of boot-able partitions when Grub appears. How can I fix this? This is what my grub looks like:

  • Ubuntu
  • Advanced options for Ubuntu
  • Ubuntu 13.10
  • Advanced options for Ubuntu 13.10
  • Windows 7 (loader)

How can I get rid of the duplicate Ubuntu entries in the Grub boot list?

EDIT: sudo update-grub2 didn't work, but it does show this:

Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-3.11.0-12-generic
Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-3.11.0-12-generic
Found Ubuntu 13.10 (13.10) on /dev/mapper/isw_dcgidgaidc_Linux2
Found Windows 7 (loader) on /dev/mapper/isw_dcgidgaidc_Win7p1

sudo update-grub2 should be enough to fix the duplicate entries.

  • Nope I still have "Ubuntu" and "Ubuntu 13.10" in the list

  • You can use grub-customizer to check the scripts & find out if these are indeed duplicate entries, and then delete them manually if necessary: askubuntu.com/questions/295666/…

  • Could you give me some advice what I need to do within grub-customizer? Have never used it before

  • For example if I right-click the "Ubuntu" and "Advanced options for Ubuntu" and clicked "delete" would that work?
