Thread: GRUB Overwritten


i created triple-boot netbook. have latest ubuntu, backtrax 5, , windows 7 on it. had working fine. when tried follow truecrypt tutorial on getting windows partition encrypted ended overwriting mbr(ie: grub). knew happen, didn't expect truecrypt boot loader wouldn't detect bootable partition.

windows 7 partition hadn't been encrypted, yet. true crypt doing test feature, before drive encrypted. believe linux partitions , windows 7 partitions still in-tact. however, can not partitions load, due truecrypt loader not working.

have tried supergrub2, didn't detect partitions, , rescatux, did detect partitions failed every time. trying follow grub re-install (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/grubhowto) via command line, ran hiccups along way.

if can walk me through process of reinstating grub thankful, , if requires lot of time can reimburse through paypal. have never had seek these kind of issues, before. new linux, has severely hampered progress far.

you have grub2 , instructions grub-legacy.

use these instructions:
