Package: os-prober Version: 1.65 Severity: important Tags: d-i Dear Maintainer,
When installing the Jessie (netinst, amd64, 20150315) or updating GRUB in my Dell Vostro 5470, the os-prober is looping if there are formated partitions without an installed operational system. I have two extra empty partitions with ReiserFS and vfat: --- /dev/sda3 Block device, size 596 MiB (624951296 bytes) ReiserFS file system (new 3.6 format, standard journal, starts at 64 KiB) UUID 1D55E629-8E1D-452C-AFA2-23D45AF1DA04 (DCE, v4) Volume size 596 MiB (624951296 bytes, 152576 blocks of 4 KiB) --- /dev/sda4 Block device, size 461 MiB (483393536 bytes) FAT32 file system (hints score 5 of 5) Volume size 460.1 MiB (482430976 bytes, 117781 clusters of 4 KiB) When I run update-grub or update-grub2, I can see in other terminal: 779 pts/0 S+ 0:00 /bin/sh /usr/sbin/grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg 1289 pts/0 S+ 0:00 /bin/sh /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober 1293 pts/0 S+ 0:00 /bin/sh /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober 1294 pts/0 S+ 0:00 /bin/sh /usr/bin/os-prober 1295 pts/0 S+ 0:00 tr ^ 1296 pts/0 S+ 0:00 paste -s -d 1308 ?

To resume, I need to kill the PID 779. My current partitioning is: Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type /dev/sda1 * 2048 136718335 136716288 65,2G 83 Linux /dev/sda2 136718336 974608383 837890048 399,6G 83 Linux /dev/sda3 974608384 975828991 1220608 596M 83 Linux /dev/sda4 975828992 976773119 944128 461M 83 Linux Thanks in advance.
