Hi Ben,

here it is:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a
# device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices
# that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).

I saved the jessie partition to update to stretch and after that I
changed the UUID of jessie partition to a new one. os-prober still uses
this old no more existing UUID.
