Detecting other operating systems

To have grub-mkconfig search for other installed systems and automatically add them to the menu.

First, install os-prober

sudo pacman -S os-prober

Then, mount the drive where the other operating system is located. I did it with thunar.

Run os-prober

sudo os-prober

Finaly, re-run grub-mkconfig

sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
