If Grub doesn't detect all the OSes properly, you can update the boot-up list manually. You can just copy the other Ubuntu boot option and change the partition to be the one with the second copy of linux.

Make sure you backup the currently boot list (menu.lst I think) before installing the second Linux OS in case it overwrites it with somethign odd.
