Hey,
I had the laptop with dual booting using GRUB, everything going fine, but I wanted to use truecrypt, and it would only work if I used windows boot loader. So I installed easyBCD, latest beta build.
Here's my grub menu.lst:
First I've tried using neogrub since it doesn't affect the bootloader, but every combination that I've tried didn't work. My linux logical partition is on partition 4.
I've also tried adding a linux entry directly, with grub legacy, but the screen goes black and nothing happens.
Grub2 goes to a command line.
Right now I can only use Windows 7 and no linux =/ All this because I wanted to use truecrypt on my drive lol
I'm only using a drive, btw.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
