To add to troubles: Fixing the MBR using bootfix from the Windows-CD resulted in a totally corrupted partition table. Too bad as /home was on the same hard disk. Luckily using testdisk I was able to restore the partitions.
However Windows still won't boot from GRUB2. -- Unable to access non-Ubuntu loaders from GRUB2 menu in Lucid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/571893 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
