Hi all,
I have a notebook with 3 operation systems: Windows7, Linux Mint und Android X86. I used grub2 to switch between the OS at boot time using the simple text based menu grub2 shows. It all worked quite fine. Then I upgraded Windows 7 to Windows 10. As I expected the setup overrides grub and so I reinstalled it again.
It turns out that grub was not able to boot windows 10 for whatever reason and after some googeling I decided to try it out of windows using EasyBCD. EasyBCD seems to find the Linux OP but when I select it from the boot menu strange things happen. Instead of starting Linux it starts up grub2 (which was obviously not overwritten but somehow pushed aside).
I can live with that but what is the reason? Is it possible that EasyBCD can not work with ext3 und ext4 formatted partitions (Linux and Android)?
By the way: my boot environment is BIOS.
