I have Win 7 installed.I have 2 Hard Drives,partioned in two.
1 Disk C: and D:

2 Disk E: and F:

Exte4nal drive: J:

Windows 7 is installed on E: drive.The reson being I had Vista on C: and was dual booting. I got rid of Vista ion C: AND NOW E: has Boot Manager . I used b BSOD to change Boor drive.
My question is I want to install Ubuntu on C: drive. Do I have to manually add it to Boot mangaer??
Can I install Ubuntu and then use Easy BCD to add it to Boot manager??

Thanks in Advance for any replies

Is there any particular reason you don't want to let grub2 (the ubuntu bootloader) to take over the boot process? I am asking because that would be best solution IMHO.
I've seen people say using Easy BCD can work, but haven't tried it myself and can't give you any instructions on that.
