Title:
  update-grub: mess in menuentry in grub.cfg

Status in “grub” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After `update-grub` the following output is generated:

  ```
   menuentry 'Ubuntu, with Linux 2.6.35-22-generic (on /dev/mapper/vvg0-root)'\'' --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option '\''osprober-gnulinux-/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.35-22-generic--0ed5e93c-99f4-48ec-8b13-1b34b52852f5 (on /dev/mapper/vvg0-root)' --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'osprober-gnulinux-/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.35-22-generic--0ed5e93c-99f4-48ec-8b13-1b34b52852f5' {
    insmod lvm
    insmod lvm
    insmod ext2
    set root='lvmid/ODtXBF-9DiG-LZ2p-dI92-qJZc-9G9g-XBmgcH/grLDh5-eAcC-DEZU-gEcc-QoBR-OUlI-ik2t1l'
    if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then
      search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint='lvmid/ODtXBF-9DiG-LZ2p-dI92-qJZc-9G9g-XBmgcH/grLDh5-eAcC-DEZU-gEcc-QoBR-OUlI-ik2t1l'  0ed5e93c-99f4-48ec-8b13-1b34b52852f5
    else
      search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root 0ed5e93c-99f4-48ec-8b13-1b34b52852f5
    fi
    linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.35-22-generic root=UUID=e673fbdf-b413-4ac9-b05c-574aa15535e4 ro vga=normal nomodeset crashkernel=384M-2G:64M,2G-:128M nosplash
    initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.35-22-generic
   }
  ```

  Note, that 'insmod lvm' is done two times. $root variable is ignored!
  root option is passed like 'root=UUID=e673fbdf-b413-4ac9-b05c-
  574aa15535e4', all root magic from above is ignored which leads to
  wrong mounted root filesystem.

  The proper menuentry should look like:

  ```
   menuentry 'Ubuntu, with Linux 2.6.35-22-generic (on /dev/mapper/vvg0-root)'\'' --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option '\''osprober-gnulinux-/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.35-22-generic--0ed5e93c-99f4-48ec-8b13-1b34b52852f5 (on /dev/mapper/vvg0-root)' --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'osprober-gnulinux-/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.35-22-generic--0ed5e93c-99f4-48ec-8b13-1b34b52852f5' {
    insmod lvm
    insmod ext2
    set root='lvmid/ODtXBF-9DiG-LZ2p-dI92-qJZc-9G9g-XBmgcH/grLDh5-eAcC-DEZU-gEcc-QoBR-OUlI-ik2t1l'
    if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then
      search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint=$root 0ed5e93c-99f4-48ec-8b13-1b34b52852f5
    else
      search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root $root
    fi
    linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.35-22-generic root=$root ro vga=normal nomodeset crashkernel=384M-2G:64M,2G-:128M nosplash
    initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.35-22-generic
   }
  ```

  I would want to ask people, who did such artful programming: do you
  look at the output of your scripts at all?
