** Description changed: Binary package hint: ubiquity - Clean-Ubiquity is a small tool (<100ko), written in Bash, that performs a MBR backup before Ubuntu's installation. (and links the MBR to the new Linux's partition UUID). + Clean-Ubiquity is a small tool (<100ko), written in Bash, that performs a backup of: + 1) the MBR of all disks + 2) the partition table of all disks + before Ubuntu's installation. (and links the MBR to the new Linux's partition UUID). No visible change for the user. Licence: GPLv3 Project page : https://launchpad.net/clean-ubiquity Source code and DEBs : https://launchpad.net/~yannubuntu/+archive/clean-ubiquity/+packages Its MBR backups can be recovered manually, but they can also be used by the 2 following graphical tools : - OS-Uninstaller (allows to uninstall any Windows, MacOS, Ubuntu... in 1 click) - Boot-Repair (repair frequent boot problems, restore MBR, reinstall GRUB) DEB packages are ready, on the PPA, for Ubuntu 10.04, 10.10, 11.04, 11.10 and 12.04, and have already been included them with success in ISO of Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Lubuntu 10.10, 11.04 and 11.10 (see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1615667), and also Ubuntu derivatives. Integration in ISO is easy : Clean-Ubiquity needs 2 DEB (from PPA) and 2 preseed, one to launch a bash script before installation, the other to launch another script after the installation. Clean-Ubiquity and the 2 above tools have been intensively tested, and already used by ~10.000 French users. (+1000 ISO downloads per week worldwide.) (This is not an April fool. :-)
