Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.99-27+deb7u2
Severity: normal


Dear Maintainer,

on this Dual Boot machine with Debian 7 and Windows Vista, the Vista
disppeared from the boot menu. I suspect this is the result of some
update recently. I have seen this same thing on other hosts, decided
to report now that I have seen it several times.

I reboot so seldom and even more seldom boot to Windows, so this may
have been a long time ago. Datestamp for /boot/grub/grub.cfg is 2nd
May.

kopiokone@mistraali:/boot/grub$ ls -lh grub.cfg
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 3,3K touko  2 12:46 grub.cfg

Running update-grub fixes the boot menu:

root@mistraali:~# update-grub
Generating grub.cfg ...
Found background image: /usr/share/images/desktop-base/desktop-grub.png
Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-3.2.0-4-amd64
Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-3.2.0-4-amd64
Found Windows Vista (loader) on /dev/sda1
Found Windows Recovery Environment (loader) on /dev/sda2
done

Lines for Vista are indeed added to /boot/grub/grub.cfg.
