&lt;snip&gt;<br>Thats what I hope too Eric (that it was an RC1 issue).&nbsp; But maybe not what we were thinking.&nbsp; Based on Alan&#39;s experience being so very similar to mine, I wonder if the RC1 issue was partly the Repair facility which did not work for me but gave basicly the same messages that Alan saw except that mine failed.
<br><br>The one big difference though is that when my ubuntu resized the Vista partition and subsequently built /boot/grub/menu.lst it did not see the Vista partition as a bootable Windows.&nbsp; It did when it had not resized the partition.&nbsp; I suspect the same thing happened to both of us but it was handled differently in the two cases.&nbsp; It will eventually be interesting to learn the root cause!
