I am changing the problem description to os-prober requires partitions
with other operating systems to be mounted to correctly enumerate
entries, since this persists on Precise and the workaround is still the
same - after mounting my debian and slackware partitions, the entries
detected are
After many months of despair, I have an interesting workaround!
My partition and OS setup is still the same - Ubuntu + Arch + Debian +
Slackware + Gentoo, each running only ONE kernel.
If I do a `sudo update-grub' in Ubuntu with everything else NOT mounted, I
still get the same old results -
Also here present is many entries in Grub menu.
I have several disks with several partitions and different Unbuntu versions.
Latest install was the Ubuntu version 11.10 on a new disk with the bootloader
on that disk in his own MBR.
Sellecting via the BIOS to set this disk as #1 to start, i
Still present, and as annoying as ever...
Can anybody give me a few pointers as to what might be causing this issue in
linux-boot-prober? I believe I have supplied all the relevant information
necessary.

I have finished the upgrade to x86-64 for all OSes on my two laptops;
the symptoms remain - Ubuntu, Arch and Gentoo have one entry each,
Debian has five entries, while Slackware now has four (as opposed to
three before). It may be confirmed easily that /boot for each of these
OSes has only one
It seems like I jumped too soon. I ran sudo update-grub again when I had
finished my gentoo install, and the debian redundancies are back - there
are now 5 debian entries as before, and 3 slackware entries. The arch
and gentoo entries are singletons. Of course, there is only a single
kernel on the
In my case it is certainly not due to a proxy script, since I did not
install grub-customizer nor did I find such a script present.
However, as should be evident from the output I posted above, it is
linux-boot-prober that detects spurious installs. Clicking on any of the
above entries leads me
Having same problem. Seems that proxy scripts, something new in natty release
that might have caused it.
Here's entries in my /etc/grub.d
00_header
05_debian_theme
05_debian_theme.dpkg-old
10_linux
10_linux_proxy
20_linux_xen
20_memtest86+
30_os-prober
30_os-prober_proxy
40_custom
41_custom

Correction for my previous post,
Based on https://answers.launchpad.net/grub-customizer/+faq/1355
The *proxy* scripts were related with grub-customizer, I installed grub-
customizer before upgrading to natty, and seems the customizer didn't
cope well with release upgrade :D

By all means... here is the output from both, as well as the contents of
(/dev/sda7)/boot, and of (/dev/sda8)/boot (parentheses implying the
partitions were mounted to a location), to be sure what is actually in
