Ubuntu 9.04 dual boot on Samsung NC10

[Richard & Barbara Awbery]

Thanks Tony - In between writing the first email, I have reinstalled Ubuntu 
and the original problem has now gone.  However, I am now left with what 
looks like multiple instances - e.g in the grub start up file it show 
versions on SDA5 and SDA 7 - how do I get rid of these unwanted versions?

Regards

Richard
