[Bug 1072794] Re: Win partition needs to be mounted for an update-grub to discover it

[Phillip Susi]

If the partition is not mounted, grub has to recognize it, and it does
not due to the LDM bug.  Once that is resolved, it should detect windows
without the partition being mounted.  You might zeroing out the invalid
LDM headers as suggested in that bug and if that does not fix it, we can
reopen this one.
