Title:
  Windows Vista won't boot after new install of Ubuntu 10.04

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: grub

  After a complete new install of Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit, Windows Vista
  failed to boot from the Grub menu. When I tried to boot to Vista from
  the Grub menu I got the recovery partition for Windows Vista which
  came pre-installed on this laptop. When I researched the problem I
  found that Grub had switched the menu title of the Vista Recovery
  partition on /dev/sda1/ with the menu title of the Vista Loader
  partition on /dev/sda2/ so that the Vista Recovery entry on the Grub
  menu booted to the Vista Loader and the Vista Loader entry on the Grub
  menu booted to Vista Recovery. I can still boot to Vista normally;
  only the entry titles have been switched. I don't need a solution to
  this problem. I am only reporting it in order to save others from the
  heartbreak of a completely unnecessary experience trying to repair the
  Vista mbr.

  The version of grub that I am using is grub-pc 1.98-1ubuntu5.
