Hi billbear, I don't know how I got "infected" with FlexNet. All the while, grub hadn't be causing any problems and nothing on my Windows system had changed, with the exception of a few updates.
You do think that changes in grub2 caused this, don't you? Well, I think so too. Yes, I did try chkdsk. I booted into the recovery console using the Windows setup disk. The partition was corrupted. At this moment, I do not have access to that dual boot machine, but I'll let you know once I've tried your suggestion. Thanks. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/730225 Title: grub-install trashes ntfs partition when sector 32 of the hard disk is occupied by Adobe FlexNet -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
