* Cherry-pick from trunk:
- Use grub-mount if it exists. This lets us do true read-only mounts,
and works better on journalling filesystems that were mounted
uncleanly (LP: #683355).
- Attempt to load the fuse module, to improve the chances of grub-mount
working.
* Depend on grub-mount-udeb. - 15. By Christian Perrier

* Team upload
[ Christian Perrier ]
* Fix Gentoo detection (different name for kernel and initrd
files). Thanks to caillean for the patch
Closes: #611670
* Detect Haiku on BeFS partitions.
Thanks to Jeroen Oortwijn for the proposed patch
Closes: #590897[ Joey Hess ]
* 90fallback: Avoid ever accidentially identifying the same file
as initrd and kernel. Closes: #612303 - 14. By Otavio Salvador

* Let yaboot linux-boot-prober work on all chrp machines.

* Fix Windows Vista and Windows Recovery Environment partitions
recognition. (Thanks, Bouke Bunnik)
Closes: #589676, LP: #476625
* Allow recognition of recent MINIX installations.
Thanks to Feiran Zheng
Closes: #592924[ Colin Watson ]
* Improve error message when /sys/block is missing.
* os-prober doesn't know how to probe other OSes on non-Linux kernels.
For now, just exit quietly rather than confusing people (closes:
#567953).
* Ignore active swap partitions (thanks, Alex Owen; see #417407).
* Refactor linux_mount_boot to look up labels and UUIDs using blkid or
/dev/disk/by-*/ rather than relying on mount being smart enough. This
removes some horrible code that executes mount from /target.
* Set partitions read-only before mounting them (based on a patch by Alex
Owen; closes: #417407, #556739, #599203). - 11. By Colin Watson

* Fix FreeDOS test to use case-insensative filename lookup
as was already done for all other DOS/Windows tests. Closes: #582257
(Thanks, Harald Dunkel)[ Colin Watson ]
* Handle Dracut-generated initramfs names in linux-boot-prober fallback
test (thanks, Piscium; LP: #420900). - 10. By Colin Watson
-
Handle single-quoted items in grub.cfg; this has been part of the syntax
for a while, but recently started being used upstream to avoid another
bug. - 9. By Colin Watson

* 90linux-distro: also allow for lib32 and lib64 directories when looking
for ld*.so*. With thanks to Maximilian Gerhard. Closes: #574407.[ Colin Watson ]
* Detect Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2, thanks to
Thorsten. LP: #544117
* Detect Arch Linux initrds: http://wiki.archlinux. org/index. php/GRUB2 and
http://repos.archlinux .org/wsvn/ packages/ grub2/trunk/ grubconfig. archlinux. patch
indicate that /boot/vmlinuz26 is associated with /boot/kernel26.img.

to Fabian Greffrath for the patch. Closes: #563825[ Otavio Salvador ]

properly detect Windows' recovery partitions. Closes: #547382[ Joey Hess ]

Closes: #569222

in some exceptional conditions. Closes: #569235
