    Did you edit grub.cfg file manually?

    Execute sudo update-grub command in Terminal. It will detect all installed OSes and generate new grub.cfg file.

    Reboot machine. If GRUB Menu doesn't appear at startup, post the output of fdisk -l command here.
    Code:
    sudo fdisk -l
    * Its small L in fdisk -l.
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.
