How to multi boot with OSs? Currently, I run Ubuntu. I use grub.

When you install with using berry-installer, you should install grub to a partition. (Ref. 'How to install on hard drive') And modify grub.conf on the Ubuntu.

 How to dual boot with Windows

When you install with using berry-installer, you should install grub to a MBR.
(Ref. 'How to install on hard drive')
If you have problem with the grub configuration, you modify grub.conf.

the original grub configuration for windows is:
-----
rootnoverify (hd0,0) # windows XP in hda1
makeactive
chainloader +1
save default
-----

the error message is :
-----
Error 15: File not found
-----

Do the following:
grub> unhide (hd0,0)
grub> hide (hd0,1)
grub> rootnoverify (hd0,0)
grub> chainloader +1
grub> makeactive
grub> boot
