[ubuntu-uk] Reclaiming Ubuntu partition

Thanks to both Al and Tommy. I'm going to reinstall Windows (Vista) anyway so I'm not overly concerned about any collateral corruption. Thanks again, Keith. -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

Does 'locate grub.cfg' tell you where the file is? Otherwise, try the find command. I've only tried the telnet hack on my Joggler so far - it didn't work for me. I'm putting together a UNR usb stick now, to give that a go. On 4/22/10, Simos Xenitellis simos.li...@googlemail.com wrote: On Thu,

You're likely to find grub.cfg in the same folder as the grub.efi bootloader application. In this case it's at /etc/grub/grub.cfg Sorry, that was a typo, it should be efi not etc (so you'll find it at /efi/grub/grub.cfg) Chris -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com

[ubuntu-uk] Ubuntu JeOS

Hi folks, I was wondering, with the pending release of Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, is Ubuntu JeOS still going to be available? I currently have a VM running Ubuntu JeOS 8.04 LTS, and I backed this up the other day and updated it to 10.04 LTS okay (in fact it went really well), but I haven't been able
