after trying to set a dual boot my ubuntu system doesn't boot properly
After screwing up the installation of kubuntu as a secondary OS on my ubuntu system, ubuntu won't boot properly. I thought i could install kubuntu onto an external drive, to keep the 2 OSs as independent as possible. But during installation it must have re-written the bios to boot only from that drive. Now in order to get into ubuntu I need to start from the bios boot menu. After unplugging and re-plugging the external i finally get to select my current version of ubuntu. Is it possible to restore the original boot settings? Also, if i leave the external out I get the "grub" prompt, which obviously mean grub can probably fix the problem. Unfortunately, I have no idea what to type in. Any ideas?
