[Bug 385500] Re: OS prober assigning wrong values

I have "fixed" my system by editing the grub.cfg & setting labels for
all my installs--What seems to be happening is this:

1.OS-Prober set /dev/sdxx instead of a UUID.
2.My system seems to "shuffle" my drives around at odd times, so calling the operating system will fail at random intervals.
3.I first tried inserting UUIDs in the os-prober section, but grub2 still wanted to call up the partition by /dev--
4.So I found that by setting a label & then calling the partition by root=LABEL="name of partition" works for now.

Please comment if I have set the bug correctly--should it be against OS-
Prober?

It is looking like there needs to be a "sane" way to edit grub.cfg
