Hi all,

I just reformatted my c: partition with my d: windows recovery drive, and now I lost ubuntu on sdb3.

I used the live usb to try and see what's going on; the ext partitions still remain, and windows recognizes it's appropriate drive size.

How do I get back into Ubuntu? There is no grub, no anything...

Any and all help is extremely appreciated.

Hi

Sounds like you need to reinstall grub. Windows overwrites the MBR.

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2

and read section Reinstalling from LiveCD

Kind regards
