Comment 25 for bug 441941

I'm in the same situation with HP 6510b. Even though HP is doing something with MBR, why this did not happen in previous versions with legacy grub ? Maybe something to think about in GRUB2 design and enhancement.

I agree w/ what has been said above: If a new comer faces this.
1- he will come back to windows immediatly
2- he'll make such a noise about "Ubuntu bullshit" ...

I think the developers should find a way to overcome this bad publicity. On my part, I stop recommending Ubuntu from the 9.10 version
