Re: Dual boot Ubuntu and Windows 7 - does not detect disk!
From other threads seen here, I think a disk installed into a dvd-rom is not sued to boot from. It all looks normal, but it can't boot a bootloader from it.
I suggest to try putting grub2 to another disk, like /dev/sda. Also, make sure the hdd and ssd, sda and sdb are separated, and you are not using them in any sort of special relationship like Intel SRT or similar.
Use the ubuntu cd in live mode in terminal try something like:
Code:
sudo mount /dev/sdc6 /mnt
sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sda
Then set in BIOS to boot from sda, the 500GB disk. And see how it goes.
The combination of hdd+ssd cache disk is usually configured as some sort of raid array. Depending how yours was configured and whether you did something about it, like disabling the raid setting in bios, you might also need to delete raid meta data from sda and sdb so that linux can correctly see them as separate and not as raid. From the bootinfo they do seem correctly recognized as separate, so you might not need to do anything about this.
