I had already run update-grub, but that hasn't made any difference
update-grub should call the script '/etc/grub.d/30_os-prober'. What if
you call it directly? Does it return any error? You may also call
os-prober directly.

I checked disk space - it is not an issue

Something funny going on in /tmp - not exactly sure what - would you
recognise this problem, or should I look more closely?
