How do I get two versions of the Ubuntu that both use GRUB-2 to work with Easy BCD boot loader?
From a prior post I read I gather that Easy BCD can’t boot two Linux distributions that use GRUB-2. I was wondering however if I could load onto my hard drive one Ubuntu and then a second thereby creating a BRUB-2 boot menu with the option to boot both Ubuntu’s. Then I thought I would be able to boot from the GRUB-2 menu into Windows 7 and add a single entry for Ubuntu. This should chain load the Easy BCD boot loader to the Ubuntu GRUB-2 boot loader.
:ldown:
I just tried to set up and now I can’t get into either Ubuntu’s. Am I missing something? There must be a way to get Easy BCD to pick up the more complex GRUB-2 menu with the option to boot into more than one Ubuntu OS.
