Triple boot

[Jam3s-Zer0]

Well, I had a double boot with xp home and ubuntu as I was testing ubuntu out. I use grub boot manager to manage the boot. I then decided to have a look at trying a triple boot with xp pro. Got it installed and everything was fine but now instead of loading grub when i turn on my system, it just boots straight to xp pro. If anyone could help me so it can load up grub and I can choose what to boot rather than just auto xp pro boot, I would be grateful

Thanks anyone that can help.

James.

In XP Pro, fix your boot.ini file so it shows both XP Home and XP Pro, that should be in Control Panel>System>Advanced>Startup and Recovery settings. Check "Time to display list of operating system" Put your amount of time, select which is default on the drop down list.

Then reinstall grub by booting into your Ubuntu CD, you can google "restore grub in Ubuntu" and there's a ton of information.

thanks, i'll try it now. The boot.ini was fine already so i'll just try reinstall grub.
