How do you expect Ubuntu to find a kernel on an unmounted partition?

You may be surprised, but when using os-prober, it will examine the system
and search for installations regardless of whether they are stored on a
mounted fs. It does that here by default, and even finds them on LVs.

As this "feature" is quite annoying when using cascaded bootloaders, it has become part of my routine customizations to put

GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=true

into /etc/default/grub on all new installations to disable it.
