Your information seems enough to confirm that we need the fuse module in the installer kernel and have it loaded in os-prober prior to OS tests. Thanks for your help. I'm therefore cloning this bug so that kernel maintainers add the fuse module to installer kernel packages and we modify os-prober (probably os-probes/common/50mounted-tests) to load this module beforecalling grub-mount (not sure about the latter). --
