Hi all.

I built this PC myself, and it is equipped with a lovely Samsung 500GB Sata HDD. Upon first booting up my PC, I installed Windows XP Home Edition on a 250GB NTFS partition and all was well.

A couple of weeks later I installed Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon (on a 25GB Ext3 partition, with a 756MB swap) and became used to the bootloader, which gave me the options of Ubuntu, Ubuntu Recovery Mode and Windows XP.

Today, I installed Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium on a 100GB NTFS partition, and I am stuck with some bliddy bootloader which gives me 2 options:

1. Windows Vista
2. Previous Version of Windows

I need to get Ubuntu to show up again, I am missing it :(

So I'd either like to switch back to the GRUB bootloader, or get Ubuntu to show up on the Microsoft one.

Thanks,

Josh
 
Looks good. Though I can't pick up the file size of the download :(

How big is it? I am on a cap, and have used 90% or so of my usage. If its too big, I'll have to wait until it resets.

Cheers,

Josh

EDIT: Nevermind, very small :D
