Installed WUBI on Windows and the Ubuntu installation completed. The first time I logged in to Ubuntu it updated a full set of patches and asked to reboot.
Now after reboot it is showing me the error:
no such devices found
grub rescue>
Can you share some commands I could use to recover at least Windows? It is not even asking for the Windows login at boot time.
Answer
Cause: Grub2 is not supposed to replace the original bootloader.
Conditions: Windows 7, Netbook, no optical disc drive, no rescue CD, repair startup not found in Windows Rescue Environment (Press F8 before Windows logo appears), failed to uninstall Grub and restore Windows bootloader
Solutions:
- Get SuperGrubDisk to boot into the Windows partition.
- In Windows, get
Mbrfix.exeto fix the MBR (runMbrfix /drive 0 fixmbr /win7).
Do read the instructions in the documentation.
