in fstab is fully legal; thus, update-grub is wrong.
I rated this bug as "important" as it leaves the user's machine in a
non-booting state. In fact, my first "solution" was to replaced
update-grub with a tool that called the old update-grub and performed a
sed to fix the paths.
The attached patch fixes the problem in a straight-forward way. I am not
sure if it is the best way, however. It might be a better idea to fix
fix find_device(). I did not perform this change, as I am not sure about
any side-effects this might cause.
Note: I tested this problem with Debian Sarge, Debian Etch, and even
with a Ubuntu 6.10 system: All show the same behaviour.
Regards,
Spiro
