Reinstalling GRUB

Check out my new Linux channel: http://bit.ly/linux-nixie When you power on your computer, the first software that runs is a bootloader that invokes the computer's OS. http://www.linuxhaxor.net/2009/04/11/nixies-linux-haxor-quickie-getting-start... phpGRUB, the GRand Unified Bootloader, is an integral part of many Linux systems.

Most Linux distributions that use GRUB come with it installed and ready to use. Many of the distributions that do not have GRUB installed by default have it available in their package systems; check there first before doing a manual installation. ( from Linux.com)

This is just a quick tutorial (see http://www.linuxhaxor.net/ for more quickies) on how to set up grub when you want to dual boot.

Find this and a lot more at http://www.nixiepixel.com

Thanks for your support guys!

I had the opposite problem. Made a mistake setting up LVM and accidentally included the only windows partition I had at home. Even though I immediately reversed my mistake still couldn't fix it. Tried testdisk to resurect the NTFS partition but no luck. Unfortunately, I knew reinstalling would blow away my linux system (and I was more familiar with lilo than grub) so I just let sleeping dogs lie... 'till I found your post. I had no idea it would be so easy to resurrect grub. Thanks again.
