Bug description:
Binary package hint: grub2

I have lubuntu 10.10, grub2 cannot detect my Windows 7 partition and also doesn't show it in the start screen.
I solved manually installing "os-prober":

# sudo apt-get install os-prober
# sudo update-grub2

so maybe it should be added to the default installation.
