[Bug 1409209] Re: After installing Lubuntu from USB stick, GRUB mistakenly lists Lubuntu as Ubuntu

[Dave Kokandy]

Check and see if it can be reproduced in a more modern image. I will try
to reproduce using a more recent image soon.

To reproduce:

Install Lubuntu alongside another existing operating system using the
ubiquity installer.

Expected result:

Grub lists your new installation as "Lubuntu" and the other operating
system as its correct name.

Actual result:

Grub lists my new lubuntu installation as "Ubuntu" (only) and the other
operating systems correctly (for me, Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS and Windows 7).

** Description changed:

  I installed Lubuntu 15.04 Vervet (Live image 2015-01-09) as a Manual
  installation (choosing "Something else...") to install the test Lubuntu
  alongside a machine that already has Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and Windows 7.
  
  After installation, Lubuntu was mistakenly listed as "Ubuntu" in the
  GRUB menu. The existing Ubuntu installation, which had formerly been
  labeled as "Ubuntu" was now (accurately) labeled as Ubuntu 14.04.
