I clean installed Windows 7, and installed Ubuntu 14.04 afterwards. Rebooted, then booted straight to Ubuntu. Used Bootable Windows 7 USB and fixed the MBR in command prompt. Then rebooted and it booted straight to Windows, no Ubuntu option, used Live Ubuntu and installed and ran Boot-Repair this worked, but after reboot I finally got grub, but it only shows ubuntu.

Hope someone can help me out, really would love to be able to learn how to use linux and maybe use it standalone in the future.

    Why do you have GRUB installed in the MBRs of two different drives? Also, habe you tried running update-grub?

  • Good question, did try a different install before this one. Can I run update-grub from the terminal?

I have encountered quite a lot cases where Windows wouldn't boot any more after the alongside installation of Ubuntu. The thing I always try first is to renew the GRUB entries using the following command from a terminal:

sudo update-grub

I've experienced this to fix such boot problems most of the time. If it doesn't, I try it with Boot Repair.
