Bug Description
After following the ISO test case "Install (Auto-resize" and rebooting, the subsequent GRUB displayed with the two O/S's should that the new Ubuntu Budgie install was displayed in GRUB as "Ubuntu".
The other Ubuntu Budgie install is shown as "Ubuntu Zesty Zapus"

Just a guess, but maybe this could be handled in os-prober.
My initial thought is if grub could check whether a specific desktop meta-package is installed and use that name instead of Ubuntu. I think "Ubuntu" should still be the name if more than one metapackage is installed instead of trying to pick a name.
