Get Back GRUB:


If your computer have more than one operation system and you install windows after you install linux OS, maybe you get problem with GRUB. GRUB (GRand Unified Bootloader) is bootloader for several distro of linux, for example Ubuntu. LILO and GRUB are required for boot linux OS and other operating system in your computer that have been detected.

Windows doesn’t have loader that can detect any OS in your computer. Windows bootloader just load windows OS and overwrite the other loader.

Now, how to make your GRUB back?


I use Ubuntu 9.4 with GRUB configuration.

To get back your GRUB conf just do list above:


root:~# sudo grub
grub> find /boot/grub/stage1
grub> root (x,y)
grub> setup (x)
grub> quit
root:~# reboot



Very easy, right? So, don’t be anxious to make a dual boot computer.
