Fedora and Windows fighting for the bootsector

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

I have a Toshiba (Satelite C50-B-14C). Window 8 was preinstalled. I turned
it into a dual boot by shrinking the Windows partition and installing F20.
All was fine until I installed some Windows-updates the other day. The
machine then only booted windows. I made Fedora boot again by
grub2-install/grub2-mkconfig. However now when you select windows in the
grub menu it will not start because it lost its boot-block.
I'm not eager to try windows writing its bootsector again, because I'm
afraid I will loose grub2 again.
Does anyone know this problem? and how to solve it.

             Regards
	          Jouk
