Thread: Little lost with GRUB and NTFS access


i have xp , windows 7 rc installed on first 2 partitions of raid 0 array, , have ubuntu 9.04 installed on 3rd partition, , rest set ntfs partition going use share documents between 3 oses.

installed ubuntu off of alternative cd, raid array detected, , install worked flawlessly.

windows xp , 7 can access each other's partitions , shared partition. ubuntu cannot see either, nor can see shared partition.

ubuntu can access 3rd hd, formatted ntfs, i'm not sure why can't see rest of raid 0 array.


also, i'm having problems grub. can boot ubuntu straight grub no problem, when try boot windows bootloader (says vista loader), error "21: selected disk not exist." know windows installations still intact , usable, i've used super grub boot disk boot them using windows, boot windows tool.

tried rebuilding grub before, didn't know doing, , ended ruining windows installation, i'd avoid doing again...

no experience raid overcome problems dual booting vista chose install grub ubuntu partition , not mbr.

installed easybcd vista , use control booting.

may need recover mbr on boot partition (either xp or w7) , go there.
these links may provide further info.
