I used to dual boot Windows 7 and ubuntu 12.10 on my Dell XPS 15, now I installed Windows 8 Pro and now Ubuntu does not appear during Boot. There was a similar question asked in some other forum and the solution suggested was to boot with the ubuntu CD. I did the same and tried to boot with the CD , I get the error that No Operating system found and Windows 8 loads again.

I will be really grateful if someone can suggest a solution for this.
