Hello everyone,
I just got the new ubuntu install (great btw) annnnd my windows boot loader is messed up. I installed grub on /dev/sda4 and chameleon in the front again and I'm getting this error: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927391 . My hard drive is set up like this:

/dev/sda
EFI /dev/sda1
Windows /dev/sda2
OSX /dev/sda3
Ubuntu /dev/sda4
data /dev/sda6

When I try to boot either of these discs: http://neosmart.net/blog/2009/windows-7-system-repair-discs/ I get this error message: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/925762

The problem is also described here: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=165878 Though because I can't do anything with the repair discs I can't complete the process. I've also tried various things with the boot flags on the EFI/Windows partitions, to no avail.

I realize this isn't really an Ubuntu problem, but there aren't really and good windows forums that I could find... so here it is. Let me know if you can help, thanks,

Josh
