Description John Ellson 2012-08-09 13:05:53 UTC

Description of problem:
os-prober doesn't like WD 2TB USB3 external drives. grub2-mkconfig reports errors because of os-prober errors.

This problem was previously reported in BZ743136 - but hasn't been fixed.

BZ#838305 reports that a new version of os-prober is available, but this hasn't reached f17 or rawhide yet.

I also noted the lack of man pages.  That also has been previously reported in BZ#826054


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
os-prober-1.53-3.fc17.x86_64
