Fri 09 Jun 2006 12:32:38 AM UTC, comment #7: Hi I can verify this 'bug' :) I used Kubuntu 2006 boot CD, I have a SATA drive and the chipset is ICH7 (I think, it's the intel chipset). I don't know what version of GRUB it is, it's whatever is on the Kubutu 2006 CD. The problem is exactly as described (endless reboots, until reinstall linux). There are no BIOS options to disable MBR modification. I am running a HP/Compaq dc7600. I also have Novell but can't get to the windows registry to see if Novell is modifying the boot sector (but that's a great idea). I'll try lilo and see if i can get it to work. Otherwise I can forsee a long cycle of installing linux every day to get work done!

Tue 25 Apr 2006 03:23:47 AM UTC, comment #6: I, too, can confirm this "bug", using Gentoo Linux (2006.0-based install, last sync on 4/21/06). I, however, don't think that this is necessarily a bug in Grub. Rather, it's Window$ not wanting to allow another bootloader to have control of the boot process. One possible fix would be to allow stage1/1.5 to be in the MBR and stage2 be installed on a partition somewhere. Dunno if this is really possible, or if it's really a good move (or even what grub already does), tho. It would be much better if somebody were to simply find a way to stop windows from doing this in the first place.

Fri 25 Nov 2005 01:18:18 PM UTC, comment #3: GRUB and LILO work differently, and maybe once WindowsXP is run, the GRUB stage1 bootloader reamins but the stage2 (the chain-loader) is being overwritten by Windows XP. The bootloader can be installed in the disc (hda in your case), or on the parition (for example hda4). Maybe your falvour of Linux has made the wrong decisions on how to install GRUB.
