    wubildr corrupt or missing

    Hi All,

    After a partition resize with Gparted, wubi won't boot anymore.

    With bcdedit under windows i get the following lines :

    Secteur de démarrage en mode réel
    ---------------------------------
    identificateur {default}
    device unknown
    path \ubuntu\winboot\wubildr.mbr
    description Ubuntu-Linux

    "device is unknown", does anyone know how i can fix this ?

    bcdedit /set {default} device partition=g did not work

    thanks

    thanks, but my wubi files were ok.

    I finally fix the problem, with :

    bcdedit /set {default} device partition=g:

    ":" missing ...

    if you have the same problem, please be sure to use the good letter for your hard drive. Wubi stand on "g:" for me.
