Yep. I'm hitting problems with multi-booting with Leap 15.6 now running grub/os-prober . . . selecting one line item in grub and getting another one booted. Or, line item systems booting to emergency mode . . . .
Multiple running of grub2-mkconfig seems to not bring consistent and orderly booting from among only 7 installs listed--some work, some do not--in the same drive, etc.
Where would I add my name to a bug report? Or, has Michael filed one already that I can add my vote to???
When looking at my own TW system and at the described change, I didn't think this was a bug. I had long since switched to labels in /etc/fstab. For me, only grub2 was causing any issues. That was due to a setting I had changed that forced it to use /dev/sda2 instead of the UUID, so that's down to me. So I haven't raised a bug. I haven't looked to see if anyone else has, I would be surprised if someone hasn't, given all the fallout reported here. Today my boot-time script that runs hdparm and smartctl tried to set the wrong drives to idle. I had hardcoded /dev/sd*, I guess I'm not out of the woods yet. Michael
