Package: grub-pc Version: 1.98+20100710-1 OS version: Debian Squeeze (downloaded in August 13th 2010 and updated yesterday.
I have got a dual boot laptop: Windows XP and Debian squeeze. Grub works fine when I reboot the computer after having used it in Debian. However if I start the computer in windows, AND I log into an account and later reboot the computer grub stops working. It is as if Windows modifies some boot loader register and grub can no longer boot. I get the following message: GRUB loading. Welcome to GRUB! no module name found Aborted. Press any key to exit. I press a key and I get: Non-System disk or disk error replace and strike any key when ready To recover the system I have to use the Installation CD and reinstall GRUB in the master boot record. I am using Linux kernel: 2.6.32-5-686 #1 SMP. Pablo de Vicente
