I did some checking and the grub2 picked up the following partitions:

/dev/sda1
/dev/sda2
/dev/sda6
/dev/sda7
/dev/sda8
/dev/sda9

        The swap partition is /dev/sda3. The extended partition is
/dev/sda4. The old home partition is /dev/sda5. These three partitions
are not systems.

        As you can see fdisk displays /dev/sda1 through /dev/sda13. 
/dev/sda10 is an empty partition. /dev/sda11 is the other system 10.04. 
/dev/sda12 is the large data partition /home/karl/. /dev/sda13 is an empty 
partition.

        /etc/fdisk has no problem finding /dev/sda12. And it is working
right now.
