Subject: grub/boot problems
Date: Fri, 1 Jun 2012 13:27:12 -0400 (EDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.DEB.2.00.1206011316350.17823@localhost> (raw)
Hey All,
A re-installation of Windows 7 on my dual boot machine blew away grub. I
booted with the Ubuntu rescue disk (12.04) into a terminal where I tried:
sudo grub-install /dev/sda
All I get after that is a grub> prompt. How can I boot into one of the
existing bootable partitions from here?
My partitions are:
/dev/sda1 -> HPFS/NTFS
/dev/sda2 -> Linux
All help will be appreciated!
Thanks,
-K
