I asked this question earlier. I opted for mearging the Ubuntu partition with the free partition, since I was not sure with the size for /home. Thing went bad GRUB got corrupted, may be because Ubuntu partition UUID was changed due to partition deletion. After googling for some time I got that problem fixed using this post but now I am not able to view my win7 partition in linux.

Here is my Partition table configuration(from gpartd):

enter image description here

Now when I try to mount win7 drive I get following error:

Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with: mount: according to mtab, /dev/sda5 is already mounted on / mount failed

Another problem that I am at loss of 3GB of space on sda5 (ubuntu) partition. gparted is showing its a 35 GB partition but Disk utility shows its a 38 GB partition as shown bellow: enter image description here Why is it so.How do I recover it.

EDIT:

Contents of /etc/fstab: enter image description here

I think you can fix it with Mount-Manager.
But first backup your fstab (sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.bak).

You have not lost 3GB, this is how each software interpret the space of the disk. Look at your others partitions, all are "smaller" at GParted.
