[ubuntu] Broke my grub - I need help!

linux-howto

http://ubuntuforums.org – First post..go easy :) I just installed Ubuntu 12.04 as a dual boot with my Windows 7. I was using the Grub Customizer to mess with the Grub menu. I changed the resolution of the grub menu using Grub Customizer from 1900x1080x8 (or 16) to 1900x1080x24. Upon reboot I can no longer see my Grub menu. I can hit up/down arrow and select the OS by guessing. Windows 7 loads fine but Ubuntu does not load. It gives some error and never boots. Can anyone help? (Hardware)

I have a dual-boot WIn 7/Precise system. I made a mistake with grub-customizer and now at the grub boot menu I can't see any of the Linux entries, just the Win 7 one. What would be the easiest way to boot Linux so I can run grub-customizer again?

I can install grub-customizer with the Ubuntu LiveCD, but it asks for a root partition and I don't see one listed.

-Thanks! LloydM999

I am running 12.04 and after doing some updates I ran grub customizer to clean up the grub menu. I swear I only unchecked Linux entries with old kernels, but when I restarted the only grub choice is for the windows 7 partion.

Could someone help me boot into Ubuntu!

Thanks!

Installed Ubuntu 12.10 as a second OS. Grub bootloader delivered over Win. Grub smart caught and added Win, only to the end. And by default I need to ship Win.

Hey, everyone. I currently have a dual-boot setup with Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.04

Whenever I start my computer after booting windows previously I'm presented with a different GRUB than usual. I recently downloaded and installed linux kernel 3.6.0 and made some changes to GRUB using GRUB customizer. So I have been doing some tweaking with those files.

I was originally trying to make my Windows 7 as the default program to start. Searching the Internet I found that using Grub Customizer would help me do this. It was already installed in my applications so I thought I would try it.
