Bug Description
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/
Changing the path in grub.cfg and under /etc/grub.
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.
