I have just installed PC-BSD in the sda3 partition of a system with XP
and Ubuntu 12.04 installed in it. Previously, update-grub detected
FreeBSD and NetBSD installations in the same partition (BSD slice
ada0s3).
However, update-grub failed to detect the PC-BSD partition. I tried
creating a boot
This problem, at least for FreeBSD, seems to have been solved in 12.04
Precise Pangolin:
I just upgraded a system from 11.04 to 11.10, then to 12.04 yesterday.
It has Ubuntu, Windows XP, and FreeBSD 8.1 installed in it, similar to
the configuration of the system I originally reported this bug on.

especially the BSDs, by interested persons.

I've now got os-prober to detect and create chainloader menu stanzas for NetBSD
and FreeBSD.
The key is to call blkid again with the -p option when a UFS partition is
detected to return the ufs type and to mount the partition with the proper
ufstype parameter to the mount commant.

My bug 502938 is essentially the same as this, but specifically for
NetBSD.
I hope to be able to put some time in on this 'real soon now'. For the
