hi

i recently had to reformat my win7 desk due to deleted MBR, i have a dual boot with ubuntu. but i cant see my ubuntu and my data part data partitions in my computer, however when i go to disk management they are listed as primary partitions and however i cant access thier content and nor do they seem to have any letters assigned to them

plus the laptop boots in to win7 by default, no options to select ubuntu

thank you

I think Ubuntu is borked - I'd suggest posting over in the Linux forums: http://www.techsupportforum.com/f64/
one thing to add, you mentioned that there is no drive letter..
so right-click the primary partition in disk management and select "change drive letters and paths" then select "change" and select a drive letter.

Also i would say that Ubuntu is fine, its just that the windows boot loader does not contain the info for ubuntu to boot. So i think that the easiest way would be to download "easyBCD 2.0 BETA" (you have to register at their site/ also get the latest build)i walk you through with this....

Also, how did you install Ubuntu, normally or through Wubi?
