Hi, I have 5 operating systems spread over 2 hard drives. I recently had cause to repair my win7 install. When I selected win7 from my bootloader (chameleon) I then got the windows7 bootloader with win7 recovered and win8 recovered. This was because I had the hard drive with win8 connected when...

Today I tried the latest easybcd and used it to boot win7 32bit, win7 64bit, xp, Ubuntu and almost osx. I have never been able to use it to add linux and osx at the same time before. The last hurdle is that the osx bootloader part is not booting my osx, I need to know where I can find...

Windows 7 comes with a quick launch explorer icon. By default it opens up Libraries. I would like it to open Computer, just like when you choose computer from the start menu. I have tried deleting the quick launch entry and then draging the computer icon from the start menu to the quick launch...

I have a wish for a magic button for easybcd, when you click it, easybcd would check every partion of every drive for an os and then create neogrub entries for them all. Very lazy for me to wish for but I just cannot combine my two linux entries into the neogrub menu. Just a wish. Mike

Hi, I have just installed Ubuntu 9.1 and OpenSuse 11.2 on my second hard drive. I have windows 7 on my first. Each version of Linux has the bootloader on their root partition. I can add entries successfully to each of them using ebcd although I have to edit the (hd0,2) to (hd1,2) for Suse. I...

I'm trying to find a tutorial for manualy editing the neogrub menu so that I can add multiple Linux distros.The main source appears to be the wiki which is down.Any other sites worth looking at? Mike

hi everyone,I've been doing some thinking on my OSX boot problem and think it might not be a problem with bcd but the way I installed it.Because it screwed up windows when I installed it,every other time (There has been lots) I've installed it I have unplugged the windows drives. This means OSX...

Please can I request a feature to be added to a future build of easybcd. I would like to see an option of selecting actual drives and partitions when adding an OS. Because Linux and OSX insist on writing something to all the drives in a system even the ones you are not installing them to and so...

Hi everyone, I've tried adding an entry to my OSX installation which I can boot from if I use F12 during post. If I try using the entry I end up with the error, Calling chainbooter Bootmgr is missing Press Ctrl+Alt+Delete to restart. Now, during the boot process there is a point at which...

I have installed Ubuntu 8.10 on a seperate hardrive. I have added an entry to it and checked the box which says something about it not being on the boot drive (sorry I'm not on Vista at the moment). I need to edit my menu.lst file but it is not the same as older versions that I was familiar...

Hi everyone, I currently have Vista and XP on a pair of raid0 drives and Ubuntu on an old pata drive. These are all booting fine through easybcd. I'm thinking of splitting up the pata drive so I can put windows server 2008 on to try. Has anyone got any advice before I go ahead. I will probably...

Hi everyone, I have the following problem. I have Vista and XP on a raid 0 drive happily dual booting thanks to easybcd. But I also have Ubuntu on an ide drive because there appear to be no drivers to allow me to install it on the raid setup. Now I don't seem to be able to select the ide drive...
