[ubuntu-my] What will happened if i were to reinstall back win xp

[Yong Chiao Woei]

Greeting all
I had managed to recreate back my grub and can now select to boot either
ubuntu or xp from the grub menu without any problem.

Here is the step i took

   - sudo grup
   - grub>find /boot/grub/stage1
   - grub>root (hdX, Y )
   - grub>setup (hd0)

All thank to nicholas ng for the link

Bye
