Public bug reported:
After repartitioning my MBR formatted, multiboot HD GRUB would not boot my OSX
partitions.
My screen only shows "Error: Drive not found Error: file not found".
I manages to boot into the partition with SuperGrub2disk and OSX Boot disks.
By "try and error" I found out that there is something wrong in the OS-Prober
script.
The boot loader did try to look for a "sleepimage" file on the partition in the
wrong place.
the path in the prober-script was "/var/vm/sleepimage", but the file is located
on the OSX partition in "private/var/vm/sleepimage" (OS X 10.6.8).
Changing the path in grub.cfg and under /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober to the
above was my answer.
At last, I don't know if the bug does rather affect GRUB2 than os-prober
(with finds all my OS correctly), but I hope that someone can change
this.
