251642251642251642Hi,
I had shrinked volume on windows 8 to create a partition and installed ubuntu 12.04 after creating boot and home partition. But now on selecting windows from the boot menu i am getting "error: no such partition" error. i can boot in to ubuntu. I have backed up windows 8. i tried restoring windows 8 and again installing the ubuntu 12.04. Still seeing the same error. I tried using the boot-repair after booting in to ubuntu with usb. The boot-repair gave a like "http://paste.ubuntu.com/7189943". i see only one partition with "sudo fdisk -l" output. But i see all the partition with the gparted software. I have attached screenshot of gparted.
$ sudo fdisk -l
