Not update-grub but grub-install /dev/desireddrive and then update-grub if boot/default drive is not dev/sda. This is on upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04 -- Click OK to continue...

Well that was the case a while back with my new debian installs. Perhaps its changed now. I'm not arguing the case for a LOST grub. -- "I have a BSEE....

You are the one who seems do be confused here "Hadron". Not me. Melzz has explained time and again by now that he didn't install anything. He upgraded from 13.10. Grub was installed on the wrong drive. Thus my previous comments aren't any helpful ether. At least I don't make up nonsense like "a lot of installers do not recognize Windows". Another bald faced lie by "Hadron" documented. > Not update-grub but grub-install /dev/desireddrive and then update-grub > if boot/default drive is not dev/sda. This is on upgrade from 13.10 > to 14.04 So you fixed it yourself by now. Yet it's still an odd and nasty bug. -- |_|0|_| Marti T. van Lin (alias de ML2MST) |_|_|0| Registered Linux user # 513040 |0|0|0| http://linuxcounter.net/user/513040.html

I would take your word for it but if you had installed and used six distributions and used them long enough to perform updates, you would surely demonstrate less ignorance about Linux than you do.

Blame the user tactic. For most people it only takes one screw up for them to send Linux packing. Unless it's a hobby and the person likes tinkering around and experimenting, that person has to have a really good reason to want to run Linux after their system gets borked by an errant update/upgrade. Most people don't. And the reason is the applications experience is lousy with Linux compared to the competition. -- flatfish+++ 163 Reasons not to deal with Michael "Snit" Glasser, the Prescott Computer Guy http://cosmicpenguin.com/snitlist.html

Of course I'll blame him for being ignorant and untrustworthy. That has nothing to do with Linux.
