Yes, I meant that I installed natty on sda8 via live-usb stick and it is
a ext4 partition.

here is the output of "sudo os-prober":

/dev/sda3:Windows Recovery Environment (loader):Windows:chain
/dev/sda8:MS-DOS 5.x/6.x/Win3.1:MS-DOS:chain

and here of "sudo sfdisk -l /dev/sda"

Disk /dev/sda: 60801 cylinders, 255 heads, 63 sectors/track
Warning: extended partition does not start at a cylinder boundary.
DOS and Linux will interpret the contents differently.
