Package: grub-common
Version: 1.99-12
Severity: normal
hello.
grub-mkconfig gives me multimple times a same menu entry (of the same name in fact).
i have discovered linux-boot-prober is responsible for that (the output as follows):
/dev/sda6:/dev/sda6::/vmlinuz:/initrd.img:root=/dev/sda6
/dev/sda6:/dev/sda6::/vmlinuz:/initrd.img:root=/dev/sda6
/dev/sda6:/dev/sda6::/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.30-2-amd64:/boot/initrd.img-2.6.30-2-amd64:root=/dev/sda6
/dev/sda6:/dev/sda6::/vmlinuz:/initrd.img:root=/dev/sda6
/dev/sda6:/dev/sda6::/vmlinuz:/initrd.img:root=/dev/sda6
/dev/sda6:/dev/sda6::/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.30-2-amd64:/boot/initrd.img-2.6.30-2-amd64:root=/dev/sda6
i believe it's not ok and somebody will figure it out.
for now i am dealing with the problem through a little modification to /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober
by adding a " | sort | uniq" after "linux-boot-prober ${DEVICE}", but i think somebody should correct it, somehow
sincerelly,
