Bain, TPG, H&F, CD&R, Berkshire, GTCR, Francisco, New Mountain, GI Partners, Genstar, MDP all do quite well at HSW.
List above is good; would broadly say the Boston firms above in particular (Advent / Bain / Berkshire) have always had a very strong emphasis on business school in particular and have very good pipelines/connections, especially at Harvard given proximity and alumni base.

And yes, some firms with proximity like Bain and Advent will place better into Harvard, than say TPG.
