i had windows xp installed on my pc,i downloaded ubuntu 12.04(LTS) and made a bootable pen drive using pendrivelinux software.........i had resized one of my existing partition using a software in XP.....then i booted from pen drive and installed ubuntu in the new partition(other than XP one)......now from my booting menu i changed the priority to HDD and directly ubuntu is running......without asking to choose between two operating systems(i presumed it to ask).....then i searched into askubuntu and they advised to get boot-repair through the terminal......an error occured! saying unable to locate package

Did you try running this at the terminal? sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yannubuntu/boot-repair && sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get install -y boot-repair && boot-repair – Peachy Oct 12 '12 at 15:04
