*Subject:* installed Ubuntu gnome - think messed up the boot loader
Hello!
I've installed Ubuntu gnome alongside of windows 7, though since i had
two partitions, i went through the manual installation.
before mentioning my problem, I'll say what i have done.
I had three partitions:
/dev/sda1: 100mb
/dev/sda2: 160gb (my windows partition)
/dev/sda3:330gb (for my ubuntu gnome)
I have selected /dev/sda3 for Linux installation and set the
formatting options.
Then, i accidentally chose the /dev/sda1 for putting the grub booter,
do to the orca (the screen reader) being buggy in the partitioning
screen, it kept forcing me to fumble around with the keyboard.
What is happening now is that i can't load windows. I can't see the
grub menu do to my visual impairment, but i suppose that the last item
is always windows 7. i hold down the down arrow key for 5 seconds
then press enter, and nothing happens.
I believe i have messed up something by installing grub in /dev/sda1
which was 100mb?
Thank you
