install using Lubuntu 20240425 ISO (latest RC as of now) and issue reoccurred. on ISO is

calamares 3.3.5-0ubuntu4

as before

- erase disk & install to dc7700
- install alongside (slider moved random amount as usual, so size [of partitions] aren't critical
- install & re-use SDA1 (first installed partition; what was shrunk) and critically NO-FORMAT is used

on reboot, no grub menu appears.
if I go to terminal and `sudo update-grub`... no other OS is shown, with 'OS_PROBER will not be executed' message appears..

I can't boot into the other OS that was present before this QA-install test.

-- as stated on matrix

`sudo vim /etc/default/grub` .. uncomment the OS_PROBER line, save & exit .. then `sudo update-grub` and now on reboot the install is exactly as expected/wanted (ie. other OS(es) are now offered at grub ...)

After that change.. I can boot the other OS, and everything looks as expected... This procedure to workaround issue is easy to document
