[aprilmot]

Hello All,
I have windows xp and ubuntu in my system. Few days before my windows crashed. Hence I reinstalled the Windows os. After reinstalling windows, the screen to choose the OS to boot (GRUB) is not coming.
Could you please let me know how shall I bring back my Ubuntu OS back

Thank you

The absolute easiest way is to do a google search on "super grub". Download the .iso and burn the CD. Boot off of it and just follow the instructions, which are a little weird because it's written in European English. It'll fix your GRUB loader and put you back up. The other technique involves going into the grub tool and doing a bunch of command line stuff that I always have to look up. Too much like work. :)

Good luck.
