[Ilugc] [reply for] windows applications not bootable under GRUB
Hi, In the past few days i had a complaint from many of the juniors: After ubuntu installation, everything works fine until you boot into windows. If you restart the system after booting windows once, it shows *no operating system found*. Many people think that this is a problem with Ubuntu :-( But unfortunately this is an antifeature of some windows applications. >> it deos not mean that ubuntu does not done any mistake the harddrive partition of master boot record mbr did not recognise the ubuntu partiton for that u can use the dd command to save the windows mbr file and modify and run it will work perfectly be careful while using the dd command thank u bye take care ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
