Hi,
my OS setup on my laptop is a bit complicated, but the answer to my question should be simple
Ive got Windows 7 (1 System partition and one big file partition) installed and then encrypted with truecrypt.
Now ive installed Debian 5.0 into the 30GB i left unused and instructed debian to install the grub bootloader onto an stick.
Logically i cant use grub to boot, since i need the truecrypt bootloader
(i know you can boot into an encrypted OS using grub, been there done that, just everytime you update truecrypt it automaticly rewrites your MBR, too much hassle to always install grub again).
So iam trying to use the Win7 Bootloader to boot into my debian if i feel like.
Now i just need to get the grub bootloader into a file that i can implement into the bootmanager of win7 using easybcd.
I copied the MBR of my USB stick using dd if=/dev/sdb of=bootrec.mbr bs=512 count=1, but when i try to boot this with the win7 bootloader it just print "grub" at the top of the page and nothing happens.
So i guess i either should copy more or less bytes of that usb stick, or do i need to copy it from /dev/sdb1?
Or is something else wrong in my approach?
Thx in advance
