Feb 24, 2009I've set up a triple boot xp, vista, and fedora 10. The problem is that I want to remove Fedora grub, so the bios can give me all 3 choices to boot from, be it xp, vista or fedora. At the moment fedora grub boots, from there i am able to choose other operating systems. But I want to use windows boot loader, from there i would like to have windows give me the choice of different OS's to boot from.

View 5 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Can I Just Go To Windows And Remove Partition?
Sep 1, 2011For the short time Ubuntu was usable on my system I loved it. I used it for about 95% of my computing needs. I enjoyed messing around with the command line and learning the ins and outs of what makes an OS tick. Unfortunately I lost the GUI and have spent hours and hours over many months trying to get it back to no avail.Now, I am having boot issues and my computer is acting weird. I blame Windows for this as it is a perennial problem and the main reason I went to Ubuntu. I use my laptop, my only computer, for work and any downtime, like loosing the GUI, really screws my world up. So, I am going to remove Ubuntu from this machine.
How do I do this? Can I just go to Windows and remove the partition? What about the Grub? This is my main concern as I get ulcers and flop sweats when my computer doesn't boot up.

Feb 28, 2010A friend of mine was complaining about his Windows computer being slow here lately.
I told him he is probably full of malware that slipped past his anti-virus program.
I've heard that one can use a live Linux cd to remove malware from a windows computer. How would I go about doing this?
Is it as simple as booting the cd, then using zypper to install an anti-virus program to the ram file system and mounting/scanning the hard drive. If so what program is the best to use for this purpose?

Jan 25, 2010Currently I dual boot windows XP and ubuntu 9.10. However, I am quite happy about my Ubuntu installation and I am starting to think about my windows xp install as a waste of hard drive space.I wonder what's the best way to remove the windows xp install.I have 3 partitions, windows being the first, ubuntu being the second and the third being ubuntu's swap.I am not familiarized with the way the grub bootloader works so I am worried about breaking it if I just remove the first (winxp) partition via gparted and expand the second (ubuntu 9.10) fill the empty space.

View 9 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Remove Grub From Other Windows Disk
Feb 14, 2010I have windows XP on one disk, I added another disk and I installed UBuntu 9.10 on it. I wish to temporarily remove the ubuntu disk, however grub cannot load unless that disk is connected. It appears that grub has got to the windows disk and my system was booting from there. I wish to remove grub from all disks, (or at least the windows disk). I tried removing it from the synaptic package manager, but it's still there (but it looks different, maybe another version loaded or something). I'd like to just be able to boot from either disk using my bios boot menu.
View 6 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Uninstalling Windows 7 - Remove Wubi?
Jun 8, 2010I have been using Ubuntu Wubi for a few weeks now and am quite happy with it, and I am not missing Windows 7. This is not my first contact with Linux OS. In fact I have tinkled with Red Hat, SuSe and Fedora quite a few years back but never pursued them seriously as I found them difficult to use. Many people seem to be saying that "if you want to uninstall Ubuntu, just go to Windows Control Panel and uninstall Wubi like you would any other application and it will remove Wubi " But what if I wanted to uninstall Windows 7 and leave Ubuntu on the hard disk? Would I need to start from square one and re-install Ubuntu again?

Ubuntu :: Guide To Remove Windows 7 Off Other Partition?
Jul 24, 2010Anyone can show/tell or direct me to a guide to removing Windows 7 off my other partition? I'd just prefer to have Ubuntu 10.4 on the entire HD instead of dual booting. I came here so I didn't have to reinstall and wipe the entire HD to do so. Pretty sure there's a way to wipe 7 off the other side and update GRUB to only detect ubuntu.

Apr 19, 2011I recentely installed ubuntu to my second hard disk (on the first i had windows 7 and data), but the hard disk that i installed ubuntu on broke, so i had to trash it. The problem is that i have an external disk reader that is only bootable after i booted at least once into windows. So basically i can't boot using either Windows or Linux disks, nor can i boot into the os itself. When i start the computer i get something like device not fount and a long code, then a prompt shows up (Rescue GRUB). What do i need to type here to remove grub and be able to boot into windows?

Aug 15, 2011Sup Ubuntu forums, before I begin I would like to say that I do indeed thoroughly enjoy Linux, especially Ubuntu. and I do intend on coming back to it later on down the road.
Okay, so what I want to do is completely remove Ubuntu and the Grub Bootloader and install the Windows Bootloader but I am not so sure how to accomplish said task. I bought my laptop with Ubuntu 10.04 installed on it and have since then updated to 11.04. I don't believe windows was previously installed on the laptop but I could be wrong.
I have a Ubuntu 11.04 Live CD, a Windows 7 Ultimate Installation CD, and a Windows 7 Recovery CD.
I have heard that you can remove all the necessary partitions that have Ubuntu/Grub in them through the Ubuntu Installation process but I am not sure which partitions to remove.
