Hi

Have posted about this on the main forum and been pointed towards a BCD
stores "problem".

I have a Dell Inspiron N5010 with:

/dev/sda1            2048      206847      102400   de  Dell Utility
/dev/sda2   *      206848    20686847    10240000    7  HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sda3        20686848   143566847    61440000    7  HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sda4       143568894   976771071   416601089    f  W95 Ext'd (LBA)
/dev/sda5       143568896   356144984   106288044+   7  HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sda6       356145152   453801983    48828416   83  Linux
/dev/sda7       453804032   469426175     7811072   82  Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/sda8       469428224   938178223   234375000   83  Linux
/dev/sda9       938178560   976771071    19296256    b  W95 FAT32

sda3 = win7
sda6 = Debian Sid

I assume the problem is /dev/sda2 appears to be the boot drive (the "*"?
from fdisk above?).

I installed wubi on win7 but on reboot I am not seeing the menu to continue
install.  Apparently I have two bcd stores on sda2 and 3.

Don't know how to fix and the more I read the more I get confused!!!
