Hello I have two hard drives one with ubuntu and one with windows 7.
I first was running ubuntu then added a larger hard drive and installed windows 7 on it.
I am wondering how to fix this. I tried using this tutorial https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
but it didn't work.
Here is my fdisk -l printout
Disk /dev/sda: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19457 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x3fc83750
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 1 19083 153284166 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 19084 19457 3004155 5 Extended
/dev/sda5 19084 19457 3004123+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris
Disk /dev/sdb: 640.1 GB, 640135028736 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 77825 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x2d2867a3
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 * 1 13 102400 7 HPFS/NTFS
Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/sdb2 13 77826 625027072 7 HPFS/NTFS
Please try to give me some useful help I have tried numerous howtos and tutorials on the internet.
I am fairly new to linux but I do understand commandline and such.
Thanks
