Just as a temp fix. I created this file so that it creates entry. Again,
mine is for windows 7, so yours might need some modification.
/etc/grub.d# cat 42_custom
# !/bin/sh
exec tail -n +3 $0
# This file provides an easy way to add custom menu entries.
Simply type the
# menu entries you want to add after this comment. Be careful not
to change
# the 'exec tail' line above.
menuentry "Windows 7" {
insmod ntfs
set root=(hd0,2) # Modify this to match your Windows partition
chainloader +1
}
