Hi,

I have a desktop PC with win-xp running on it. I recently decided to put Ubuntu as dual boot using Wubi.

I downloaded Wubi, and then it downloaded the proper image and installed it, then it asked me to reboot. On reboot, nothing happens. It boots normally into Windows, no grub or anything similar.

Before it boots into windows, it displays a message saying "invalid boot.ini file" , then it says it will boot to windows.

I tried re-installing several times, but still no use. I checked my C:/ partition and I found a folder named Ubuntu inside, so it was installed, but the system is not booting into it.

Please help :(

Please post the contents of the boot.ini within [CODE][ /CODE] tags.

I can't access it. I just discovered my Win-xp is damaged beyond repair, so I'll format the whole thing and re-install. Thanks for help :)
