"/dev/sdd is configured as an lvm pv, which contains a single lv, which
contains a GPT with a single partition of the whole size formatted
ext3."
That doesn't make sense. GPT is a partition table. You partition the
disk, not logical volumes. The disk should be partitioned, and a
partition contains a physical volume. Logical volumes contain
filesystems, not partitions, so it does not make sense to say the lv
contains a GPT.
Exactly what command did you use to obtain that strace? It looks like
it starts in the middle. grub-probe does not identify other operating
systems; that is what os-prober does. grub-probe just identifies what
disk and partition /boot is on, and what fs type it is. It does not
scan the entire disk.
** Changed in: grub2 (Ubuntu)
