Bug#251794: analysis



According to the log file, os-prober never scans the mounted partitions
at all. One possibulity would be due to symlinks. os-prober looks in
/dev/discs for partitoons, and then for each partitoon, if it is listed
in /proc/mounts, scans it as a mounted partiton. If devfs offers another
path to the partition, or if somehow what is in /proc/mounts does not
match the /dev/disks entry, then it would not run the mounted tests.

This may explain why I did not reproduce this bug when mounting a
partition by hand; if I used the right devfs path.
