I installed Windows 7 then Leo4allv2 and then Ubuntu Jaunty just today. Now grub does not recognize any of my previous installations.

 

here is the fdisk result in ubuntu terminal:

 

Disk /dev/sda: 250.0 GB, 250059350016 bytes

255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders

Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Disk identifier: 0x0002a1eb

Partition table entries are not in disk order

 

Thanks in Advance!

In Linux, edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and add the following entries:

 

title Windows
	rootnoverify (hd0,2)
	makeactive
	chainloader +1

title MacOS
	rootnoverify (hd0,3)
	makeactive
	chainloader +1

 

I make no promises that these will work. The MacOS entry is particularly likely to misbehave; there's something a bit odd in the way at least some OSx86 boot loaders work, such that they sometimes don't work right when started from GRUB. If that's the case, you should post more details, such as what boot loader you're using and what, if any, error messages you see when you select MacOS from the GRUB menu.
