The first disk in the system has windows, the second has os X and xubuntu / and swap partitions. The user upgraded to maveriks, but now when the system start you can see Windows, Xubuntu and OS X in the refit boot menu. When you select Xubuntu, it boots in to windows. I booted from the super grub disk ( <a href="http://www.supergrubdisk.org/" target="_blank">http://www.supergrubdisk.org/</a> ) and can select the Xubuntu option and it boots fine. I've looked in gparted to see where the boot loader might have been for xubuntu, but I can't tell. There is a /boot folder so I think the system was partitioned in to / and swap only. Any suggestions on getting xubuntu booting again. I've tried update-grub2, but that doesn't help. I've looked at using the grub-install, but I'm not sure what parameters I'd use to run it. I tried:<div>
<br>sudo grub-install /dev/sda</div><div><br></div><div>but it says it can't do that on a GPT partition. Same with /dev/sdb.</div><div><br></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I just found this and will try it tomorrow:</div>
