Hi,

I have Windows & Hardy installed in a dual boot config with the Windows partition (100 GB) on hd0, and then the remainder of that drive (200+ GB) for Hardy.

All worked fine, but then I had to reinstall Windows when it crashed (guess I reached the MTBF again :).

Now, Windows, of course, over-wrote the MBR, and I wish to reinstall GRUB, without damaging my Ubuntu install.

I have the Hardy CD, and can boot into Ubuntu with it.

How do I reinstall Grub?

Patrick

Thanks, I will. =) I knew it had to be documented somewhere, but I couldn't find it.
