[Bug 920648] Re: ubuntu live, grub-install, dual boot windows.

[Håvard Skinstad]

how TO: Try Ubuntu live cd.


Download ms-sys newest.

Terminal:

Install 'gettext'

extract ms-sys*

cd ms-sys

make

make install

fdisk -l

find HD 'windows loader NTFS (100 MB) Mind is: /dev/sda1

Don't know if you need to use '-m' (ms-sys -m /dev/sda)

ms-sys /dev/sda

Then it is to install ubuntu from live cd.

Then boot inn to windows. and use scandisk.
