Just to be sure and if you have time, what happens if you
#grep "W.i.n.d.o.w.s. .S.e.t.u.p" sda3/Boot/BCD
This is how I identify my Vista Rescue partition on my Acer Aspire 7220

I assume /dev/sda1 is your Linux partition. Right ?

I've quickly created a patch for my Acer Aspire 7220 with Windows Vista
préinstalled against version 1.39 of os-prober (Debian Sid/unstable).
Explanation :
/dev/sda1 is my rescue Vista partition
fdisk reports it as ID 12 Compaq diagnostics (Ah, Acer has something to do
with Compaq ?)
/mnt/sda1/b
I confirm this very annoying bug exists since months in unstable.
Everything (and the way to fix it) is explained here :
