Bug#473401: grub-installer: grub2 config for Windows partition does not boot

Package: grub-installer
Version: 1.29
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-CC: grub at packages.debian.org

I did an install from debian.exe with d-i dailies to install sid
(#473364). Unfortunately the /etc/grub.d/30_otheros that was generated
did not allow me to boot Windows. Simply changing (hd0,0) to (hd0,1)
fixed this. Looks like grub2 uses 1-based partition indexes instead of
0-based ones like grub1 did.

CC to grub at p.d.o requested by nyu.
