Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: grub2
I have a multi-boot system & after updating to grub2, only my main
system is available. OS Prober has assigned wrong values to my other
installs based not on UUID as they should be, but on set
root=(hd1,1)--etc...The problem with this is that all the addresses are
off by one...in the case of set root=(hd1,1)--it should be 2,1--so I get
an error message that the kernel needs to be loaded to use the selected
operating system.
