Maybe you have confused between the volumes and the partitions. The 3rd volume is the recovery volume but the 3rd partition is exactly the Windows partition as showed in this link.I am still confused about your partitions. Your 3rd partition is 138 GB and says System. What is that? Since it would normally be your Windows partition, do you know why it is not. Having two System partitions is not normal. I don't know how to get the System off the partition, unless you remove the boot flag.
I remove the System off the partition by set its ID to a GUID basic data partition: set id=ebd0a0a2-b9e5-4433-87c0-68b6b72699c7. I don't know how to get the 3rd partition GUID but I belive its GUID is a EFI System Partition one.
The Windows 7 is in my 3rd partition and the Ubuntu is in my 4th partition. Maybe I made a typo somewhereYou say both Windows 7 and Ubuntu are in your 4th partition (140GB)....
Yes. The 3rd partition has the Windows folder in it and the 4th partition has an Ubuntu folder.If you look in the 3rd or 4th partitions, does either one have a Windows folder in it? You could check using the live Ubuntu, or from a command window.
Thank you very much. Even I have solved this problem, I will have a look to make sure no problem remains.This is my Diskpart readout for comparison. I do agree something is messing up the way your system sees the partitions.
Partition ### Type Size Offset
------------- ---------------- ------- -------
Partition 1 System 100 MB 1024 KB
Partition 2 Reserved 128 MB 101 MB
Partition 3 Primary 122 GB 229 MB
Partition 4 Unknown 95 MB 122 GB
Partition 5 Primary 82 GB 122 GB
Partition 6 Unknown 18 GB 205 GB
I am also attaching my GParted Disk Management window for your info. Maybe you will see something. I used the screenshot utility then changed the name to something simple before saving. .
By the way, how did you specify a boot partition for Ubuntu during setup ?
