I recently tried to delet excess entries from the Grub2 boot loader, and i succeeded, the only problem is that all i have now are the 2 Ubuntu entries, but no Windows 7, entrie.
I have tried all things in this site,and everywhere else but it seems that the problem is that the windows 7 entrie has been deleted from THE /ETC/GRUB.D/30_os-prober.nk
I think this problem can be solved by re-pasting the correct windows 7 script from
the grub.cfg file so if anyone can just paste one of those here for me, or offer a better solution i would be forever grateful. Countless hours trying to fix this problem
