You didn't say (leaving us to guess ...) but I presume that you NOW can boot into Win8, but not into Ubuntu. Right?

Sorry, but you will need disk/USB boot media to rewrite the MBR to boot into Ubuntu. You can't do that from Win8.

To redownload the older versions of Ubuntu, go to the following site: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/
