Hi all! I have a little problem and hope you can help me to solve it.
I have 2 partitions.
On the first one I have Ubuntu 9.10.
After I installed ubuntu, I installed Win7.
Now I don't have any option in the boot loader to log into my ubuntu and I can run only Win7.
I've Noticed that in Win7 there isn't boot.ini file as it was in xp.
can anyone help me on how can I add ubuntu to my boot loader(BCD)?
See if this helps. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot
Note: You may find it easier to start afresh with a single partition. Install Windows 7 to that and then install Ubuntu as a normal application by running wubi.exe.
This automatically adds Ubuntu to the start up menu.
From BCDEDIT - How to Use
Thanx for the answer!
the first link didn't help me because there were no info about editing the Win7's BCD.
I am trying now the program easyBCD which is supposed to help editing the BCD. Until now I had no success on adding Ubuntu to the BCD.
Another thing is that in the link you've given me the author's focus is on grub 2 and adding windows to grub. I prefer adding Ubuntu to BCD.
I although prefer installing Ubuntu on a seperate partition because I need it for work issues and in your suggestion (installing as NTFS file) it works slower...
If I won't have any other solution I will install it as NTFS file but I prefer not to do it...
Thank you very much!
