Hi there,

I have a laptop with a 60GB HDD. I had Windows XP and Ubuntu 8.04 dual boot. My harddrive was setup as follows:

45GB Windows (NTFS)
15GB Ubuntu (EXT4)
384MB Linux Swap

I decided to install Vista, on the same partition where XP resided. Vista takes over the bootloader so Grub doesn't show up when I boot my laptop. How do I get Grub back?

I attached a screenshot of Partition Editor if it helps...

Thanks!
