Title:
  [Precise] [Regression] Grub doesn't recognize other Linux distros
  anymore

Status in “grub2” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  - Regression since latest grub2 updates on Precise Beta

  - Observed on 2 different machines.

  - Grub doesn't recognize the presence of other Linux distros on same
  machine anymore (it was working perfectly before) (There's a Mint
  /boot on /dev/sda6 here).

  - OTOH it identifies FreeBSD, which it didn't automagically do
  before...

  Grub now spits "no such disk" error that I had never seen before.

  Example:

  $ sudo update-grub
  [sudo] password......: 
  Generating grub.cfg ...

  Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-3.2.0-19-generic
