hi all,

i am using ubuntu 7. i am having a dual boot, windows xp and ubuntu.
i have just re installed windows and thus the boot loader no longer
exists and i am unable to boot to my linux partition.

i tried its live cd and was trying grub-install command, but its not
working.
i am trying to use chroot, its saying access denied or user has not
permission.


chroot can only be done if you are root, so you need to add sudo infront,

sudo chroot /mnt/yourinstall /bin/sh
