[Bug 962972] Re: HPFS/NTFS not detected

[Colin Watson]

It detects the NTFS partition fine; it just doesn't detect that the
second one has anything to do with Windows.

Can you run 'sudo grub-mount /dev/sda2 /mnt' and then post:

 * ls /mnt
 * the file /mnt/boot/bcd

** Package changed: ubiquity (Ubuntu) => os-prober (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: os-prober (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete
