I had a dual boot setup on my system, with Ubuntu 11.04 and Win7. Yesterday I updated Ubuntu to 11.10. Now , I cannot seem to be able to load Win7. I do see an entry for it on the boot menu, but when I select that entry and the screen goes black, with everything coming to a standstill. I tried waiting for it to respond but nothing happened.
I went through the forums and tried grub-update
but when I do that, nothing really happens. I am not sure of this, but I get no output from grub for up to 10 minutes (can grub-update
be made verbose?)
How can I fix this and get back to booting both OSs properly?
