[SOLVED] Dual boot won't work?

Thu Jan 22, 2009 9:32 am
I don't know if this is the right place to ask this question, but.. I had Kubuntu 8.10 installed on my comp. Using GParted, I repartitioned my drive to make room for Windows 7.. I installed Windows 7, and it's being a bully and took over GRUB and doesn't list any other installed OS's on its own. :( What should I do?

Those were very useful links! Thank you very much! I used the Live CD and followed the instructions, which worked on the first try. Then I had to spend another 30min-1hr researching how to get booted back into Windows! Haha.. (For that one, I just used the GRUB editor in Kubuntu 8.10's System Settings->Advanced->GRUB Editor)

Thanks again!
