Cannot Access Windows Folders

you already have the live disk...use it.Keep in mind that this won't work with karmic tho i.e with grub2.

If you do an upgrade to karmic, it doesn't upgrade to grub2. BUT, with a fresh install, you get grub2. At least, that's what ubuntu themselves claim. I guess ya gotta consider the source.

I thought I read it does upgrade to grub 2...at least before the release.I haven't checked out the forums for a week.

On http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/karmic/beta it says:

GRUB 2 by default

GRUB 2 is the default boot loader for new installations with Ubuntu 9.10 Beta, replacing the previous GRUB "Legacy" boot loader. Existing systems will not be upgraded to GRUB 2 at this time, as automatically reinstalling the boot loader is an inherently risky operation.

If you wish to upgrade your system to GRUB 2, then see the GRUB 2 testing page for instructions. See also the upstream draft manual.

Some features are still missing relative to GRUB Legacy. Notable among these are lock/password support, an equivalent of grub-reboot, and Xen handling.


While I can't vouch for the veracity of their statements, I would trust them before me!!!
