I used to have one Windos XP partition and it's protected by pointsec.
I created a new partition with help of partition magic and installed
Ubuntu in it. The usual way of modifying grub to add a (hd0,0) menu
item doesn't work. it seems grub overwrote whatever pointsec has in
MBR. I want to get back the 1st partition. Could any body help?
I did a lot of search over internet and somebody said I can boot with
a windows XP disc and use the rescue console to run fixmbr and
fixboot. First of all, I don't have a XP disc at the moment. Secondly,
I want to make sure I am not making things any worse before I purchase
an extra windows XP copy.
Can anyone give me any advice for that? Greatly appreciated.
(by the way, is there any way for me to get a XP rescue console
without buying a XP copy?)
