Ok, I meant to say "Google is our friend". I consider myself your friend but the time to put together tutorials on procedures where many already exist is not what I plan to do today.

It sounds like your "most recent" distro is Fedora - so - re-install grub from Fedora. Google is your friend.On Mon, Jul 11, 2016 at 6:45 AM, Kevin Wilson <wkevils@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:Hi,
Thanks Todd.
The thing is that now CentOS is installed and it is the current
control and it indeed uses an older grub. So what do you suggest ?
That I will reinstall Ubuntu on Fedora on the current machine so they
will the "current control"? It is quite a hassle as there is no free
partition for it (unless I will resize it); and already there are 3 OS
installed on that machine. I believe there should be another way to do
it with the old grub without installing another OK on the same
machine,
Regards,
Kevin
