I have been collecting Linux OS's for some years. At this point I have 15 of them in addition to multiple Windows OS partitions. I find that the OS probing process adds about 10 minutes to each update for each Linux distro. Is there a way to do the updates one at a time and turn off the OS prober each time and not corrupt my grub menu. Here is the list: Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type
