Ubuntu partition deleted...GRUB error 22 now

Tyreal · March 29th, 2006

This morning i got sick of all the crap Ubuntus been feeding me so I went to the Linux partitioner and deleted the ubuntu partition. Afterward it told methat there is no root file system. I exited the ubuntu installer and tried to get into windows.

As most linux/windows users know, it installs GRUB (grand unified boot loader) to choose dual boot. Problem now is, I think Ubuntu took the master boot record down with it. When GRUB is loading I get an Error 22. Anyone know how i can fix this?

I did it.. i did it. When i deleted the Linux partition, I ended up hosing my master boot record. So i went into the recovery console and ran fixboot and fixmbr. Good as new :D

Ubuntu linux seriously is a let-down. I agree with all of you, it's not that great compared to windows.
