Sorry, I will elaborate: - you said that (of course) certain files should be present for os-prober to find the operation system - that makes me realise that I always manually installed ntfs-3g, and I installed not too long ago the latest 'advanced release' (= 2010.3.6AR2) - thus, I first reinstalle

I found the cause! I always install the latest ntfs-3g driver. Colin, you mentioned those files should be available. It seems, that ntfs-3g 2010.3.6AR2 (thus the advanced release) triggers a fail in os-prober: it does not find my W7 partition correctly. However, downgrading to 2010.3.6 (from sou

Do the files /bootmgr and /boot/bcd (with whatever capitalisation) exist on your Windows 7 filesystem? If so, could you please attach /boot/bcd? ** Package changed: grub2 (Ubuntu) => os-prober (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: os-prober (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- grub does not list Win

I think you experience a different problem: your default configuration has been replaced. In my situation, no entry for Windows 7 is available at all, but the default entry is still the fourth one. On Wed, Mar 24, 2010 at 09:30, djchandler wrote: > When I updated to the latest kernel (2.6.32-17
