OK. So, according to http://www.cpqlinux.com/f10.html, F10 shortcut is 
really in MBR. Grub doesn't detect it and makes this partition unbootable.

If anyone has this type of hardware, it would be great if we could get 
information about the type of partition. My guess is that its FAT.

Thanks.

I never said it was in the MBR.

This issue was reported a LONG time ago.  I reported it, expecting more
interest and a faster response, and offered my assistance to get it
resolved.

Obviously, my expectations were not met, and I have abandoned any plans
of using Ubuntu.  So, please don't ask for my assistance again.


Wesley.

 Then it isn't in MBR or you where using modified Windows installation

 Could you find out type of partition on which those tools are located?

Regardless of what you might think, Windows does NOT 'erase' the F10
'feature' of the Compaq system.  Ubuntu is the only Operating system
that I have experienced doing it.

 If this 'shortcut' is really in MBR, then installation of every

 detect all partitions when it is installed. Just as how it detects
 Windows partition, so it should detect this one.
 
 Can you tell what's the type of partition? FAT?
