Just checking my email this AM and reading your recent replies to Ubuntu GNOME mailing list i see you included a boot info summary with both the Windows drive and the Ubuntu drive connected: http://paste.ubuntu.com/15574213/ The output of parted -l shows Win 7 is installed non-EFI but Ubuntu is

I've personally never used update-grub before, so unless the command was given by an update, no. I run Windows 7 and Ubuntu Gnome on separate hard drives. I had unplugged the Windows 7 HDD for the boot-repair. Don't think so since it happens when restarting from Ubuntu Gnome and never from

Grub shouldnt just disappear! Does running "update-grub" break it? (that would get triggered from time to time on system updates) You dual boot with Windows? Is it possible that Windows is messing with the UEFI Boot Manager? Or does it happen when you reboot from Ubuntu? I notice this diffing
