Binary package hint: os-prober
My Partitions:
sda5 swap
sda6 lucid
sda7 karmic
linux-boot-prober doesn't take the root partition as kernel root paraameter for my karmic installation.

I suspect that when I try to boot my karmic, it boots the karmic kernel with lucid userland -> nothing works.
ProblemType: Bug
DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04
Package: os-prober 1.36
ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-19.28-generic 2.6.32.10+drm33.1
Uname: Linux 2.6.32-19-generic i686
Architecture: i386

SHELL=/bin/bash
SourcePackage: os-prober |
When os-prober detects another install on a system with a shared /boot, it sets up a menu to boot that install, but passes the kernel a root= argument directing it to mount the root partition of the install running os-prober instead of the partition on which the other system was found. Example:
menuentry '<name of first linux OS> (on /dev/sda2)' [...] {
[...]
set root='(hd0,msdos1)' # <- this is the boot partition, /dev/sda1
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root <UUID of /dev/sda1>
linux /vmlinuz-x.x.x root=UUID=<UUID of /dev/sda2> [...]
initrd [....]
}
menuentry '<name of second linux OS> (on /dev/sda3)' [...] {
[...]
set root='(hd0,msdos1)' # <- this is the boot partition, /dev/sda1
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root <UUID-of-/dev/sda1>
linux /vmlinuz-y.y.y root=UUID=<UUID of /dev/sda2 (!!!)> [...]
initrd [....]
