Hello,
I have a computer with an 80GB Hard Drive on it. This HDD had XP on a 50GB Partition, and Linux on a 30GB Partition, installed so I can choose between either operating system with Grub when I boot up.
Well, I didn't want Linux anymore, so I used Norton Partition Magic to delete the Linux partition. Now, when I boot, GRUB loads and it just says 'unknown filesystem' and then 'GRUB rescue'.
Obviously I didn't realize the GRUB started with Linux first, so now I'm screwed and can't boot.
How do I fix this? Do I have to put in the Ubuntu CD and reinstall Linux on my now blank partition, or can I just somehow remove Grub and get back directly into Windows?
