I have three OS on my system (Windows 7, Ubuntu 10.4 & Mac OS X retail), I installed Mac and Ubuntu 10.4 on my second hard drive after removing my windows 7 drive first. I can boot to windows 7 automatically and if I want to get to grub to select my Ubuntu or Mac installation, I have to select my second drive at boot up with F12
Afterward I updated grub, however grub sees the windows 7 bootloader but it won’t boot it.
Is there a way to fix this? Do I have to install grub to /dev/sda2?
Here is my HDD setup:
HDD1: Model: ATA ST31500341AS (scsi)
Disk /dev/sda: 1500GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: msdos
Number Start End Size Type File system Flags
1 1049kB 17.2GB 17.2GB primary ntfs
2 17.2GB 17.3GB 105MB primary ntfs boot
3 17.3GB 1500GB 1483GB primary ntfs
HDD2: Model: ATA MDT MD5000AAKS-0 (scsi)
Disk /dev/sdb: 500GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: gpt
Number Start End Size File system Name Flags
1 20.5kB 210MB 210MB fat32 EFI System Partition boot
2 210MB 300GB 300GB hfs+ Snow Leopard
3 300GB 300GB 1049kB bios_grub
4 300GB 492GB 192GB ext4
5 492GB 500GB 8154MB linux-swap(v1)
According to grub, it's installed on /dev/sdb4
Thanks
