I have just re-installed ubuntu over itself to replace the grub. I am back to where I started, I can boot ubuntu but not windows.
** Description changed: My computer came with Windows 7 installed on it. I wanted to try Ubuntu, so I installed it alongside Windows 7 and everything was fine. I needed more space on my Windows 7 partition, so I deleted the Ubuntu partition from the hard drive. When I went to restart I got a blank screen. I reinstalled Ubuntu allongside Windows 7 and was able to restart and boot Windows. The next day I got the same blank screen, so I reinstalled Ubuntu over Ubuntu, leaving the Windows 7 partition alone. After that, when I try to boot Windows 7 it keeps sending me back to the select an OS page. I get an error that says: The NTFS partition is hibernated. Please resume and shutdown Windows properly, or mount the volume read-only with the 'ro' mount option, or mount the volume read-write with the 'remove_hiberfile' mount option. For example type on the command line: - mount -t ntfs-3g -o remove_hiberfile /dev/sda3 /media/OS + mount -t ntfs-3g -o remove_hiberfile /dev/sda3 /media/OS whenever I try to access the Windows OS portion of the hard drive. When I try the command it does not work and I get a message saying that "only root can do that" I can not resume Windows to shut it down properly though, because I must first unhibernate Windows. - I believe this mat be a bug. + I believe this may be a bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1079482 Title: Windows 7 Not Booting To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1079482/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
