Package: os-prober Version: 1.77 os-prober fails to find any os's at all after a new Debian buster install, not even the installed and running DEbian buster.
The install was done using the net-install CD on a USB stick on 2019 01 18, downloaded immediately before the installation. root@buster:/home/guest# os-prober root@buster:/home/guest# This was run the day after installation. The machine actually has two Linux systems installed: * the newly installed Debian buster. * /boot on /dev/sda2, and / on /dev/sda6. * Installed yesterday. * An older Devuan ascii. * /boot on /dev/sda1, and other partitions in an LVM on /dev/sda3 * Installed a few months ago. Both are now bootable from the grub2 boot menu installed by using the debian installer to install buster yesterday. Presumably the installer used os-prober succesfully, but the os-prober I installed today using aptitude does not work. Could they be different versions? I'm not aware of anything unusual about the enviromnent. It'a a Purism laptop. -- hendrik
