Hello. I was looking at the grub code and seen that if a disk has
multiple partition tables (e.g. macintel with bootcamp) then only first
one will be detected. In some cases it can lead to unreachable
partitions if for some reason partition is present only in one table.
Does anyone has an idea how theese cases may be treated compactly and
efficiently?
