I just upgraded a friend's machine from LL 2.4 to 3.0. It's a dual boot with Win7, which occupies the front of the HDD.
Now that the upgrade is done, I realize I should have wiped the HDD, forgotten about Win7, and installed LL at the front of the drive, for maximum performance.
I suppose I could use clonezilla to capture the LL install, then move it to the front of the drive, and maybe move the Swap partition as well. But what then would be the best way to reinstall Grub2?
So far I've come across a boot-repair disk, which looks promising, and also some command line stuff via the linux live disk. Any help would be appreciated.
