Need to restore the MBR's GRUB after reinstallign Win XP

jako-r · 04-24-2008, 08:02 AM

I haven't done it yet, just it's a plan before I do so, but I'd like to know how should I or could I restore the GRUB at the MBR after the Win XP will have reinstalled and get back the good old GRUB system launcher menu?

I'm asking this because there was not just once I had to reinstall my Linux when I installed the Win XP because seems like it had overwrited the MBR's informations.

Here's a site about using Grub on Ubuntu with pretty much anything to do with Grub/Ubuntu
