Public bug reported: os-prober detects win7 partition and creates menuentry with chainloader+1 (see http://paste.ubuntu.com/10696096/), but loading win7 ends in black screen without returning to GRUB2 menu. modified separate menuentry "11_Win7-Loader" (see below) in /etc/grub.d/ using ntldr instead works pretty well, after disabling OS_Prober in /etc/default/grub: GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER="true"
menuentry "Windows7 (loader) on sda2" --class windows --class os { savedefault insmod part_msdos insmod ntfs insmod ntldr set root='(hd0,msdos2)' search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root DEF2805CF2803B33 ntldr /bootmgr } ** Affects: os-prober (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1441039 Title: os-prober fails with chainloader on win7 partition To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/os-prober/+bug/1441039/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
