Package: os-prober
Version: 1.71
Severity: normal

Hi,

I have a backup of the Windows installation of an old laptop on an LVM
volume on a USB disk. This backup was taken by doing something along the
lines of "dd if=<windows partition> of=<LVM LV>". Obviously this can
never boot; Windows doesn't support LVM.

However, when I have the USB disk in question connected to my laptop
when I perform a kernel update, os-prober detects that Windows
installation, resulting in a boot option for that Windows installation,
which obviously cannot work.
