I have 2 similar problems which wouldn't be solved by disabling os-prober.
The common characteristic is wishing to probe all operating systems
residing on on a specific physical device. I multi-boot. There may be an
OS on any number of mounted devices (flash drives etc) which I do not
wish to probe.
I do not know any way to tell os-prober to limit the set of probed
devices. I guess you could edit /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober to filter out
unwanted devices from os-prober output with grep or so.
I also install Debian to a USB flash drive (intended to be multi-boot)
for an unrelated machine. When I install the grub adds all OS from the
"host" machine.
By default, os-prober is installed and used by GRUB. So, after the
installation you must boot the new system, disable os-prober or filter
out its output as above and re-run update-grub.
