Boot-repair is wonderfull!

I whish it get into ubuntu distributions.

The standard installer don' see win 7 uefi.
It proposes to erase win7 witch I need to keep for some special cases.
The only way is manual partitioning and install this is not easy for a beginner as me.
Most of beginers would say , OK, it doesn't work. I' ll wait till it can recognise a win7 dual-boot.

Been using win 7 ,
then tried install dual boot with ubuntu 12.10 (64) secure install.
but it never worked well, as this laptop is uefi.

Tree weeks ago Boot-repair did'nt do the trick.
Lost the win 7 boot , except with escape and bios boot-selector.
Had to select boot using the uefi boot dialog in bios system setup.

Then recently installed ubuntu 12.04 (64) as third os with a separate boot-loader in its own partition.

Then used the last boot- repair update from ubuntu 12.10 O.S. and since now it works fine
got grub2 displaying all my 3 OS ! ( Boot-repair paste N° 1601784)

THANKS A LOT for this wonderfull job done!

It definitly is a must for ubuntu to support this work !

No easy way to boot my uefi laptop without Boot-repair!
