After upgrade to Ubuntu 10.4 i can't boot windows partition. the only thing i get it's a blinking underscore after choosing it from grub.
under ubuntu the window partition seams to be ok, and i can access every file.

this is my partition table:
sda1 - ntfs
sda2 - extended
sda5 - swap
sda6 - ext4 linux (0x83)

any ideas how to solve this?
is there any tool to config grub? like yast on suse?
(off the topic : is there any "grafic" version of grub?)

Did grub install to the windows PBR? If so you will have to run the windows repairs.
