Ubuntu :: Hide The Windows Recovery Partition In Burg/grub2?

Dec 26, 2010

On my Samsung netbook, I have successfully got a pretty speedy dual-boot of Windows 7 Starter and Ubuntu 10.10

I set up Burg, to well, replace Grub2 in favour of a more attractive interface and so far so good. I know that I can hide the older Ubuntu kernels/recovery slots by pressing the 'F'key. However, the Windows recovery partition still shows up. So it looks like this:

Ubuntu - Windows 7 - Windows Recovery (vista)

Basically, how can I hide the Windows Recovery partition? If I ever do need to use it, I can access it alternatively by pressing F4 at boot.

Ubuntu :: Burg Not Working Anymore On 10.04 / Fix It?

Jul 24, 2010

I installed Burg and it worked for some time. I installed some apps that I can't remember anymore and closed my comp. I restarted my computer today and Burg does not work anymore, Grub just start like before. I tried to reinstalled Burg and it changed nothing. When I check Burg-emu it shows me the right thing, like if Burg was working. Did it happened to somebody else?

Ubuntu Installation :: Install Without Grub2 (use Existing Fine Working Grub Legacy)

Oct 2, 2010

I have a dual boot config with

sda1 /boot
sda2 Win7
sda3 /
sda4 Truecrypt Partition

i have grub1 working and chaonloading truecrypt loader if i choose "win7" in grub1 menu I want to install a new kubuntu (no upgrade) I have read that that there are problems with grub2 and truecrypt actually a bug that grub2 dont chainloads truecrypt boot loader many ppl seem to have problems with grub2 then i read somewhere that ubuntu install is not asking for grub2 to be installed and just installing it. is this right?

i think at least for the alternative install cd its wrong. i installed it on another pc and it asked me! it works for win7 and Ubuntu and i guess its grub2 but there is no truecrypt installed anyway, i wanted to ask is the live cd installer asks me for grub2 and what is the best and easiest way to stay with my grub and just change the menu.lst to the new kernel (i guess there will be one)

Ubuntu :: To Burg Or Not To Burg?

May 7, 2011

Has anyone played with Burg? I'm a bit apprehensive about trying it.This laptop had 10.10 as the only OS but I shrank the partition and installed 11.04 in the empty space.So 11.04 re-wrote the Grub with itself at the top of the list.So now I have 10.10 in sda1 and 11.04 in sda6.Do you think that Burg will cause any problems?

Ubuntu Installation :: BURG - Can't Boot To Any OS

Sep 5, 2010

Thought BURG would be cool so I installed it. Something is very wrong. (See attached photos) all I get is the 1st photo, BURG version 1.98+20100623-1+karmic. If I tab I get photo 2. At this point I'd be happy just to restore GRUB2 & forget BURG but I can't even boot to any OS. I haven't had Ubuntu on this PC for long so maybe the best, or simplest option, would be to re-install Ubuntu- which would rewrite grub2.

Ubuntu Installation :: Installing BURG Prevents Windows From Booting?

Apr 19, 2010

Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 Beta 2 64-bit
Dual-boot with Windows 7 Professional 64-bit
Compaq CQ50-215NR laptop with 3GB system memory, 1.9GHz Athlon X2 QL-60 dual-core processor, nVIDIA GeForce 8200M G, 160GB HDD

Today I decided to install the BURG bootmenu on my computer so that I could enjoy nice, pretty graphical bootmenus instead of boring old text-based ones.I installed and configured BURG using this tutorial(after some few snafus wherein I tried to use older tutorials and went through many needless complicated steps that didn't end up working anyway).Restarted, and it worked great - except for one thing. Windows would no longer boot.It would get to the "Starting Windows" screen, then about halfway through there it would flash and restart.It wouldn't start in "Startup Repair Mode" either (the same thing happened). So, I did some frantic googling, and discovered this thread. I followed a set of instructions posted therein to install Lilo, reconfigure my MBR to Windows' liking, and reinstall Grub2.Windows booted after that.Well, I thought that the problem must have been caused by one of the numerous false starts I made while trying to get BURG installed, so I installed BURG again, set it up again, and bang - Windows wouldn't boot any more.So, I re-did the MBR with Lilo again, only this time I forgot to reinstall Grub2 (oops!) and had to boot from my LiveCD and install it thataway.At any rate, I'm fairly certain that installing BURG is what's keeping Windows from booting.

I'm trying to get a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.10. I've used unetbootin to write the image to a usb flash, but every time I try to boot from it I just get the burg splash screen. I've changed the boot order in bios and so on, but it starts burg all the time. The image md5 is also right.

General :: Grub2 Just Isn't Working

Dec 9, 2010

I am wanting to install ubuntu 10.10/mint 9 onto my existing system, while allowing the old distros to boot.My setup is mirrored mdraid. Never had any issues before with grub picking up my old systems, but grub2 just isn't working.I've installed mint OK and it boots fine. But the main grub menu doesn't show, it just boots straight into mint.This includes the rescue entries in the menus - it neither shows them or any custom entries.If I run a test in virtualbox without using raid it picks up my old suse distro no problem and gives me an entry at boot.But using md it wont.

Ubuntu :: Changing OS Name On BURG?

Mar 14, 2010

I'm trying to make my BURG boot loader look better, right now it has the Ubuntu and Windows icons, but for name it has things like "untu 2.6" because the name won't fit. I am trying to change them simply to "Ubuntu" and "Windows 7", but I'm having some trouble. Using this guide, I am able to change the entries for GRUB2,but it has no effect on my BURG entries. Even if it was just removing the names all together, and just having the icons, that would be fine.

Ubuntu :: Install BURG Now Cant Get Into Either OS?

Oct 7, 2010

im totally new to ubuntu and recently installed it alongside windows 7 just now i tried to install BURG by copying a code i got from a website (dont remember which) into a terminal when i restarted my computer to see if it had worked the following came up

BURG version 1.98+20100623-1 Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first word, TAB lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists possible device or file completions.

iv looked at every solution from every related forum post but i still cant get into either operating system on my computer. i dont have either of the installation discs which is why i really need to be able to get back into windows, as well as my files and settings. i dont mind if i have to completely remove ubuntu and everything to do with it, as i can easily set that up again in a matter of minutes. right now i just need a way to return my computer to how it was before i installed ubuntu

Ubuntu :: Burg - Won't Remember Theme

Mar 27, 2010

I installed Burg, I then spent a decent amount of time editing a theme to look like I wanted as shown below. Its slightly glitcy but I pretty pleased However burg is refufing to save my choice of theme The configuration file looks like this, I've tried changing the theme to = the specific theme i want but that doesn't work, neither does changing the folding options to = yes.

# Use the previous selected theme, you can also specify a theme to be used
# In the boot menu, use hotkey 't' to popup a theme selection menu GRUB_THEME=saved
# Use the previous folding option, its value can be 'yes', 'no' or 'saved'
# In the boot menu, use hotkey 'F7' to show the full list, 'f' to toggle
# between folding modes. GRUB_FOLD=saved with it.

Ubuntu :: Burg Will Not Display Properly?

Sep 16, 2010

I recently installed Burg on my three sig computers and like it very much. I'm having trouble on one of my desktops (AMD 9950BE Ubuntu 10.04 x86_64), I installed it like I did the other 2 but this one initially boots to the standard grub2 menu, and if I press "c" to enter the grub console and exit from it, Burg starts and works normally for that session.

I've spent quite a bit of time comparing files to my Laptop with a working burg and except for HD and partitions these files compare:

Code:
grub.cfg
burg.cfg
/etc/default/grub
/etc/grub.d/*.*
/etc/burg.d/*.*

Ubuntu :: Installing BURG In Place Of GRUB?

May 28, 2010

while using StumbleUpon to find all things computer related, I found a VERY interesting article on BURG, something that makes grub look beautiful.My question is, how safely can I install this? Could somebody modify the instructions for me if my Linux drive /dev/sdb, and I have /home and /usr mounted on different partitions? Working with the bootloader has always been a wee bit over my head
