NT kernel

[darkodelta]

i have install XP and Linux Ubuntu 9.04,and later Windows 7 i remove Windows 7 but my NT kernel Boot loader don't show on start up...How do i get it back ?:confused:

Run gparted in Ubuntu and use "manage flags" to set to bootable the partition that contains boot.ini (usually sda1).

Then with the windows xp install cd go to the end --> repair --> run fixmbr


Then you'll boot to windows xp.

Is that what you wanted?

I thought you wanted your NT bootloader to show on startup. Booting Linux is a different problem. You need help from a Grub guru now to reinstall Grub code in the master boot record, accessing menu.lst in the boot folder of Linux.

well how to access linux boot folder?i tried to access from a liveCD but it says that i don't have an authorization for that file...how to edit menu.lst ?:confused:

All right then, if no guru will help you, I'll try -- do this:
Boot the Ubuntu cd.
Open a Gnome terminal window.
Run this command:
sudo grub
Run this command:
find /boot/grub/menu.lst
That will return the partition number in a form like (hd0,2). It won't be exactly that, something like that.
Run this command (using your version of (hd0,2):
root (hd0,2)
Run this command:
setup (hd0)
Run this command:
quit
Run this command:
reboot
