This thread seems to prove that it doesn't "just work" and causes some people problems that simply don't exist with other partitioning schemes. GPT (if it's supported by your system) is much simpler to set up and has none of the primary-extended partition crap. gottl...@nyu.edu wrote: > It finds linux (all kernels) and the stub windows partition.

Do you have the partition mounted when your run `grub2-mkconfig` and is it present in fstab?
