My Grub got messed up...

Postby spin doctor on Tue Feb 20, 2007 3:21 pm

I wish it could have worked this great for me aswell. But after installing LinuxMint 2.2, my GRUB doesnot list my other Ubuntu installation. Help is highly appreciated!!

I am new to Linux, but doing my installation, i put the Mint Partition to be /, but what should I then mount my ubuntu installation?

Leaving my original partition with Ubuntu unmounted in the LiveCD installation would not work.
