    Install win7 in exisiting dual boot system

    Hi

    I have a dual boot system with ubuntu 9.04 and winXp in different partitions. I want to format my windows partition. Do I need to install Grub after installing Windows? How Do I make this then?

    Thanks

    Yes, you will need to reinstall grub. Follow the instructions for 9.04 here:

    And make sure you use 9.04 cd, the 9.10 comes with different version of grub.
