Thanks for the report. Did you use the 1.3.0 release installer? If yes
could you please try the latest installer available here:

Did you use manual partitioning and made sure not to wipe the extra OS
installation? In any case, I don't think we have support to detect other
installations and list them in Grub, but I may be wrong?

so I guess.

Closing this one as the installer issue per se is fixed.
