This sounds like a bug in os-prober, which grub-mkconfig uses to detect other OSs but is actually a separate project (part of the Debian boot project). Try booting and running "os-prober" twice, the second invocation will probably fail and you will again not be able to mount your Windows partition. If that's the case, please file a bug report with Debian boot. -- Jordan Uggla (Jordan_U on irc.freenode.net) _______________________________________________ Help-grub mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-grub
