[SOLVED] Dual-boot or multi-boot of Linux Lite (and others) with Windows 7

[gold_finger]

Looked at pastebin code.  Syntax code error may not be accurate as to where error is.  Forget about that for now.

Noticed that you copied more into 40_custom than were instructed to.  Just copy the first menuentry, not the submenu stuff after it.  Using your actual info from that pastebin code, your 40_custom file should look like this:

Code:

#!/bin/sh
exec tail -n +3 $0
# This file provides an easy way to add custom menu entries.  Simply type the
# menu entries you want to add after this comment.  Be careful not to change
# the 'exec tail' line above.
menuentry 'Description: Linux Lite 2.6 GNU/Linux' --class description_ --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'gnulinux-simple-1eb010ad-2eb9-4524-bb42-ba1dc7c09278' {
        recordfail
        load_video
        gfxmode $linux_gfx_mode
        insmod gzio
        insmod part_msdos
        insmod ext2
        set root='hd0,msdos7'
        if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then
          search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint-bios=hd0,msdos7 --hint-efi=hd0,msdos7 --hint-baremetal=ahci0,msdos7  1eb010ad-2eb9-4524-bb42-ba1dc7c09278
        else
          search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root 1eb010ad-2eb9-4524-bb42-ba1dc7c09278
        fi
        linux   /boot/vmlinuz-3.13.0-62-generic root=UUID=1eb010ad-2eb9-4524-bb42-ba1dc7c09278 ro  quiet splash $vt_handoff
        initrd  /boot/initrd.img-3.13.0-62-generic
}

Just edit the file to look like above (or copy/paste above directly over what's in there now) and update grub again in Mint.  Should then have a working menuentry (listed last) in Mint grub menu.  Choose Mint from EasyBCD menu, then choose last LL entry from the Mint grub menu.
