i was trying to dual boot window 7 and ubuntu 10.4, but i accidentally delete the system reserved partition of window 7 while installing ubuntu, and left with only ubuntu so i did a fresh installation of window 7 and tried to restore ubuntu using Repair GRUB2 after install windows 7 : dual boot ubuntu 9.10
but window 7 didn't boot and "sudo update-grub" didn't worked to restore window 7.
window 7 is on the OS list but when i select to boot it, it show error
"there is no device X(x is the uuid of window 7 boot drive)
press any key to continue"
i fixed window 7 with repair disc but yet again ubuntu is not booting up and above tutorial didn't work.
