boot

[Guest]

Hello,
i've installed kubuntu and resized my hard disk so it has a linux partition. When the installation was finished, i was asked to reboot. After rebooting, my computer boots automaticaly into windows xp and doesn't even ask me what boot do i want.
Wasn't it supposed to be a menu that i could choose kubuntu or windows?
Thanks a lot for your help.

Re: boot

You need to re-install the bootloader GRUB. You do NOT have to re-install Kubuntu, though.


Use SGD to boot into Kubuntu or use the Live Kubuntu CD, to re-install GRUB.
Open Konsole
sudo grub
grub>find /boot/grub/stage1
pick the partition (hdx,y) corresponding to your Kubuntu partition.
Use that here:
grub>root (hdx,y)
grub>setup (hd0)
grub>quit
$exit
re-boot to test it.

If you wish to boot into your Kubuntu (even though your bootloader is broken),
try Super Grub Disk Live CD -- it should boot your Kubuntu.
