I am afraid this does not work. Grub Legacy will boot to Windows or Jaunty.
Running Karmic from the live CD - it is not possible to mount the Karmic partition. It is possible to run Karmic using the Super-Grub disc - this shows the Grub2 menu and then boots into Karmic. Runiing grub-install /dev/sda appears to be satisfactory , the three HDs are listed correctly, but on re-booting the grub legacy menu appears. I hope this helps - I would suggest that Karmic is supplied with Grub-Legacy until these problems are sorted out. I note that the Windows 7 partitions (three of them) are causing problems with windows as well, there are many reports on the Internet. For some reason grub2 does not seem to able to permanently alter the MBR.
