Thats the results of that script. In general, i now have my grub able to boot into all of my operating systems, but its annoying in the way that it works. I can boot into my vista on the other disk from grub, but to boot into my vista/xp/7 i have to load into the windows bootloader.. Is there any way that i can skip that bootloader step and just have all of them in grub by using:
Main operating Systems:
Vista
------
Scottys operating Systems:
Ubuntu
XP
Vista
7
Currently i have:
Main operating Systems:
Vista
------
Scottys operating Systems:
Ubuntu
Vista (BOOTMGR) -------------> XP/Vista/7
That is generally how i would like to ghave it set up..
thanks =]
Also, The only drive i want anything changed on is sda. sdb with the other vista on, i do not want anything changed, and grub seems to be able to boot into that quite happily.
