[Bug 1038093] Re: Fedora17 does not appear in 12.04's GRUB menu

[YannUbuntu]

Apparently:
- 12.04's os-prober detects Fedora16 but not Fedora17
- 11.04's os-prober detects Fedora17

So the bug seems to be a regression of os-prober.


** Summary changed:

- Fedora does not appear in Ubuntu's GRUB menu
+ Fedora17 does not appear in 12.04's GRUB menu

Title:
  Fedora17 does not appear in 12.04's GRUB menu

Status in “os-prober” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “os-prober” package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  The os-prober of Ubuntu does not detect Fedora when Fedora's partition
  is unmounted (which is frequent). Consequence: Fedora does not appear
  in Ubuntu's GRUB menu.

  WORKAROUND: mount the Fedora partition before doing update-grub in
  Ubuntu.

  Bug confirmed by several French users with Fedora17 and Ubuntu12.04
  (http://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?pid=9695571#p9695571 and
