Bug#691593: grub-pc can not start windows 8

[Martin Naughton]

Hello HacKurx,
                     There might be a problem with the search line in the
menu entry. seen another bug complaining about that line.

### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ###
menuentry "Windows 8 (loader) (on /dev/sdb1)" --class windows --class os {
        insmod part_msdos
        insmod ntfs
        set root='(/dev/sdb,msdos1)'
        search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root 90AAFD55AAFD37F4
        drivemap -s (hd0) ${root}
        chainloader +1
}

I had to change that part for that windows 8 boot with grub-pc:

### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ###
menuentry "Windows 8 (loader) (on /dev/sdb1)" --class windows --class os {
        insmod part_msdos
        insmod ntfs
        set root=(hd1)
        chainloader +1
}

Does windows 8 work completely now?
