Do not worry, You do not have to reinstall ubuntu. You will have to reinstall grub instead. Firstly, you will need to have the live CD of the Ubuntu installed in your system. * If you have ubuntu version *9.04 and lower* (GRUB 1), follow the steps in Part I of this link from my blog: http://bit.ly/9ZXhlz * And if you are using *9.10 and above* (GRUB 2), follow this link from Ubuntu Wiki: http://bit.ly/d1iuLv > i have > installed many softwares in ubuntu, if i have to reinstall ubuntu then > i have to download everything and have to use it:( it is a difficult > process as am using only dialup connection. > I can understand, but the above should help you out. Do let us know if you need more help. > _______________________________________________ > ILUGC Mailing List: > http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc > -- Thanks & Regards, Avinash Joshi Web: http://avinashjoshi.co.in _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
