Package: os-prober
Version: 1.63
Severity: important
Tags: patch
User: [email protected]

Dear Maintainer,
Having installed Manjaro and Ubuntu on a single machine, I found that
update-grub2
failed to produce bootable entries for Manjaro (from Ubuntu) because only the
first
initrd path ended up in the grub.cfg. Manjaro uses two paths on the initrd
line,
e.g.:
initrd /boot/intel-ucode.img /boot/initramfs-4.4-x86_64.img
The problem is partly caused by grub2's 30_os-prober script which can't
properly handle
multiple initrd paths. This is reported separately here:
https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?47681
But the script still depends on linux-boot-prober's output, which currently
only gives
the first path on the initrd line, ignoring anything on the line after it.
While the entire system seems hackish to me, a simple fix for this situation is
given in
the included diff, and it's no more hackish than the rest of the script.
Applying the attached patch, in addition to applying the fix suggested for
grub2 in the link
above, allows update-grub2 to produce correct, bootable entries for Manjaro.
* linux-boot-probes/mounted/common/40grub2: must be able to handle
multiple initrd paths, as used in some distros, e.g. Manjaro.
This is my first-ever attempt at reporting a bug to Debian, so please overlook
anything
I may have done wrong. (I DO wish Debian just had a NORMAL bug tracker like
everyone
else.)
Thanks for considering the patch.
