I'm following this guide : http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=10159040&postcount=5
copying c:\ubuntu\winboot\wubildr to c:\wubildr didn't work...there wasn't even a c:\wubildr file.
To edit grub.cfg:
Boot a live CD (check)

identify your windows partition that contains the root.disk (this example assumes /dev/sda1)
I typed
sudo find / -name 'root.disk'what came back was:
/media/A49ACC319ACBFDB4/ubuntu/disks/root.diskI'm pretty sure this is where my problem is...can someone let me know what I'm doing wrong?
in my dev directory, I have sda, sda1, and sda2. I just don't know how to find out which one should be mounted. I tried copy & pasting the commands below but I got an error at sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/win. "fuse: mount failed: Device or resource busy

and then edit grub.cfg as follows:
sudo mkdir /media/win
sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/win
sudo mount -o loop /media/win/ubuntu/disks/root.disk /mnt
sudo cp /mnt/boot/grub/grub.cfg /mnt/boot/grub/grub.cfg.copy
sudo chmod +w /mnt/boot/grub/grub.cfg
gksu gedit /mnt/boot/grub/grub.cfg
