Re: Restoring grub after Windows install

[Christopher Svanefalk <christopher.svanefalk@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Joachim, and thanks for the reply. Is this a scripted process, or something that will have to be done manually? Asking since I am not 100% savvy when it comes to more complicated CLI work.

Dear all,

I will have to install Windows on my desktop, which is currently running
Fedora 17. The problem with this is that Windows overwrites the MBR
(there is no way of opting out of this afaik), and hence my grub as
well. How can I reinstall grub after I install windows, so that I again
can get a boot screen where I can select either operating system? Thanks
in advance!

Hi Christopher,

use the rescue entry of the Fedora install CD/DVD for re-installing the F 17 bootloader.

Kind regards
