Bug Description
Grub 2 can no longer boot Windows 7 after upgrade from Ubuntu 12.04 to 12.10. The machine has two physical SATA HDDs, both configured with single partition. Disk one (sdb1) runs Ubuntu 12.10 and disk two (sdc1) runs Windows7. Disk sda1 is an IDE Zip drive. Both operating systems boot independently when boot priority is changed in the system BIOS. Windows remaind visible in the Grub2 menu after the Ubuntu upgrade, but when this option is selected, the machine either reboots and displays the Grub2 menu again or hangs with a black screen and does not respond to keyboard entries.
Tried the following fixes:
- Booted from Windows recovery disk and run bootrec.exe /fixboot and fixmbr
- Removed Grub2 and reinstalled it using Boot Repair running from a bootable CD
Please run the boot info script and attach the results:
