After I upgraded to lucid, I noticed that my GRUB loader finds my windows partition and lists it correctly (dev/sda1)... however when selected... grub is just reloaded. Ubuntu boots fine. Perhaps GRUB got installed inside the windows partition??? I donīt know, I am a linux newbie. Any ideas?
Please submit any ideas to me with the command present... otherwise I might not know what you are talking about.
not sure if its useful but... fdisk -l reads out as follows
