#29 Ubuntu not on Menu
This is more likely to be user error than a bug.
The menu shows Mac OS and Windows, but does not show Ubuntu.
How do I get into Ubuntu or make it appear on the boot menu?

There is no Linux boot loader on your system, so the Linux install is not bootable (with or without rEFIt). I'd assume this happens when you install Linux first, and it puts GRUB into the MBR by default, which is then wiped out when you install Windows because Windows puts a generic chainloader into the MBR.
Generally the fix is to boot into Linux from CD, and tell it to reinstall GRUB, preferably in the partition boot sector -- in your case /dev/sda3 instead of /dev/sda, or in GRUB notation, "(hd0,2)" instead of "(hd0)".
