[Bug 704515] Re: Windows won't boot anymore

[Spock112]

For all with this situation, there is a workaround:

Boot your ubuntu and install grub to the linux partion
grub-install /dev/sda6 --force in my case (you need --force, because grub 
will tell you, that install grub to a partion is not the nice way.

Boot your windows
- with supergrubdisk
- or by Windows Disc in repair mode and bootrec.exe

install a tool EasyBCD
- now you can add the linux partion with grub in it to the menu (chage the 
default one, time, etc.)
- if you used Supergrubdisk you have to install the windows bootloader to the 
MBR. EasyBCD can do this (WinXP bootloader/Win7 bootloader) - Win7 Bootloader 
in my case

what will this do ...
the 1. bootloader will be the Win one. In my case, it will boot by default 
linux. Win bootloader will load grub ... and than ubuntu.

BTW: after this ... and a update-grub ... win7 sillt won't boot out of grub
BTW2: I used Supergrub2disk 1.98s1

Hi again,
there seems to be no update in grub between working win7 boot and nonworking ...

I attached my grub.cfg and fdisk output. If you need any more, please
let me know.

I repaired the Win mbr once more, and then repaired everything
bootrec.exe can repair - Windows boots ... after installing grub again
to sda ... Win no loger boots ...

[Spock112]

so this is strange ...
SuperGrubDisk will boot my Windows fine with
set root=hd0,4
chainloader +1

my own grub won't boot windows with the same options ...
