I have a somewhat different problem. I installed ubuntu alongside windows half and half, and upgraded the windows partition to windows 7. Now when the computer starts up i no longer have the option of picking an OS to begin with. The only way I can access ubuntu now is through the cd, and that’s still just the disc version. How can i switch ubuntu back to the default?

I tried to edit this, and i get it loaded, but when I go down to where it says:

default 0

I can’t change it. I try to go with it with the cursor and it wont change.

It seems that the number cant be changed no matter what I do.

Is there another way to change this setting?

The Ubuntu crowd tries to be very helpful to neophytes, but their explanations seem to start one step too late. They say what to put into the COMMAND line but don’t say how to get to the command line. I want to boot into Windows.
