I have an XP machine where I have partitioned the hard disk as so:
XP NTFS, Linux ext3, Linux swap disk, then there is unallocated space for a possible OSX
I installed Ubuntu as per these instructions
Ubuntu - NeoSmart Technologies Wiki on the ext3 partition
and have installed the Vista boot folder and configured EasyBCD as per these instructions
How to: Install the Vista Bootloader on Windows XP The NeoSmart Files
The problem is Easy BCD has made no difference and has no effect. There is no option to choose what to boot from and XP loads as normal.
Two things I have noticed are:
EasyBCD has re-created the Vista boot folder "C:/windows/boot" folder to "C:/boot" and updates this r-ecreated version! Is this correct??????
The "C:/boot.ini! file has had no changes made to it! Is this correct????
Any help would be most appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
