Certainly. In http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/ucgi/~cjwatson/blosxom/debian/2010-08-28-windows-applications-making-grub2-unbootable.html, I explained why this affects GRUB 2 and not GRUB Legacy, and I asked for some specific information from people affected. The grub2 package currently in Maverick already works around this for certain Windows applications. If you supply the information I asked for in that blog post (also requested in various bug comments), then I should be able to extend our dictionary of signatures to cover your case. -- [grub2] grub fails to load again (in Lucid) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/551721 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
