Alright, I tried Ubuntu, hate it. I don't see what all of you like about it, and I don't care to find out, either. All I want, is to remove the blasted thing from my computer.
My main obstacle is Grub. See, Ubuntu is on it's own seperate HDD, which unfortunately is rather loud and squeals like a rusty fan. I tried simply removing the HDD from my computer, but of course Grub doesn't like that, and won't let me do anything until I plug the thing back in.
I'm hearing about oh, say, 26513213 different ways to change Grub, but all of which are about editing it from within Linux with the purpose of deleting XP. Which is the complete opposite of what I want.
I want to, from within XP, delete Grub/Remove Ubuntu from it, so that I can pull out this HDD and remove all trace of Ubuntu from my computer. Is there anyway to do this?
NOTE: Don't give me any crap about why I should keep Ubuntu, either. And sorry for sounding so angry, but I'm pretty annoyed with this right now.
