I have to admit, I've never seen this before, but I don't have access to
a LVM machine anyway. However, the linux-boot-prober output looks sane
to me; it's separated by colons and all space characters have been
substituted by circumflexes.

I believe that the first two sections of the output are wrong, i.e. boot
and root device; but that's what Philip allready suspected. If
linux-boot-prober indeed reports wrong device names, then there's
nothing that we can do about from the 30_os-prober point of view. :(

Cheers,
Fabian
