AFAIK, mbr has been pointed to GRUB after Ubuntu  installation and it works
fine until u boot into windows. I dont understand what you mean by
recognising the ubuntu partition.

Can you explain it in detail so that it will help many people who have
already faced such problems?

Hi,
  Please quote properly. I could not find which is your reply and which is
quoted one.
And do not add unnecessary tags in subject line. It breaks organisation.

[Ilugc] [reply for] windows applications not bootable under GRUB

2010-09-07 Thread jaya kumar
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
