[Bug 21175] Re: Grub removes Windows boot option when NTFS partition needs recovery

[Phillip Susi]

There isn't really anything that we can do about this.  os-prober can't
detect Windows if it can't mount the partition.  It can't mount the
partition if it needs recovery.

Title:
  Grub removes Windows boot option when NTFS partition needs recovery

Status in os-prober package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in grub package in Baltix:
  New

Bug description:
  Just guessing at the package, please reassign if necessary!

  After the latest Breezy upgrades, including a new kernel, I have found that my
  Windows partition and Thinkpad Rescue Partition, both previously automatically
  detected and inserted into the grub menu, have disappeared from my bootup
  options. Although this is essentially a Good Thing, it's clearly a bug. See URL
  for the hardware information.
