I have Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and Windows 7 on my computer. I would create a new logical partition, and when I run sudo fdisk -l I get:

Dispositivo Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 2048 206847 102400 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT /dev/sda2 206848 1518526463 759159808 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT /dev/sda3 1910609

Hello,

I am using Wubi to install Ubuntu 12.04 on my windows partition, then I decided to migrate the Wubi install to a partition. I followed the steps on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MigrateWubi, it was done correctly and I'm happy of the result.

The problem now is, my windows doesn't show up in boot loader - which means, I can't boot into windows. How do I resolve this?

How can I dual-boot a TrueCrypt-encrypted Windows 7 and Ubuntu 11.10 when both are installed separately on different physical drives?

I have two hard drives. hd0 has a TrueCrypt-encrypted Windows 7 installation with the TrueCrypt bootloader.

Need help migrating from Wubi 35 weeks 5 days ago

I know this question has been asked, but I am looking for specific help with my partition selection.

I want to migrate my install from wubi to be a dual boot. When I installed it I choose a small, partition, around 30GB. I am following these instructions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MigrateWubi I see sda4 matches that size, but has mount point as '/host', am I okay to use this one?
