I have a Lenovo T61p with Windows XP on it. It also has a type 12 partition; I believe it contains some "rescue" data. If I try to boot that partion, I get a message like "Starting MS-DOS", and then it hangs. My work around has been to add this to 30_os-prober in the "chain)" case: if [ "${LABEL}" = "Windows1" ] ; then echo "Skipping ${LONGNAME}" >&2 continue fi (The XP partition has label "Windows".) Of course this wouldn't be right if someone really has two bootable Windows partitions.
