dual booting (installed ubuntu then windows 2003 serv)



Folks,

I installed ubuntu edgy, then in the free unparted space installed
windows 2003 server. The OS was booting straight to windows, without
offering any option to boot to Linux. How can I fix this? I tried
gparted and setting the boot flag on the Linux part, but this caused
"No bootable OS" messages after power up. I deleted the windows part,
but Ubuntu data is still on /dev/hda2. I can see from mounting the
hda2 that there's reference to /dev/hda1 in grub menu.lst, and I'm not
sure how I can reassign the primary part to hda1 from hda2. How can I
get back to a dual booting OS after installing non-linux oses?

Thanks,
BEA
