UbuntuLTSP/grubgpxe EDITING

[Maksym Vorchukov]

Hello.
I have read *UbuntuLTSP/grubgpxe 
<https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/grubgpxe>* article and 
tested on Windows 7 x86.
And there is some things to be updated - in red color:


*Boot from a Windows Vista/2008 partition*
Downloadgrubgpxe.zip 
<http://users.sch.gr/alkisg/tosteki/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=1451.0;attach=830>, 
unzip it and move the contents of the "C" folder in C:\, so that you 
have C:\grldr, C:\grldr.mbr, C:\menu.lst and the folder C:\boot\.

/Warning: some of the menu names might not be exact, as I don't have 
English Windows. Please edit the page and insert the correct menu names/.

 From the Start menu, select All Programs » Accessories, right click on 
Command prompt and select Run as administrator.In the console that will 
emerge, type

bcdedit /create /d "GRUB4DOS boot loader" /application bootsector

Windows will reply (GUID) with something like

The entry {04595f8c-de6b-11dc-ab4c-b354e8ed1f5e} was created succesfully.

For the porpose of using batch file place (GUID) in variable:

for /f "tokens=2 delims={}" %%g in ('bcdedit.exe /create /d "GRUB4DOS boot loader
" /application bootsector') do (set guid={%%g})

Add the following commands to batch file:

bcdedit /set %guid% device partitioc=C:
bcdedit /set %guid% path /grldr.mbr
bcdedit /displayorder %guid% /addlast

If you want, you may change the Windows boot manager options by right 
clicking on My Computer and selecting Properties » Advanced » Startup 
and Recovery settings button.
