Wierd problem

[Nezar]

Hey,

I had dual booted win 8 with ubuntu but after I upgraded win 8 to win 8.1, the other os which is ubuntu disappeared. I formatted the drive that contained win 8 and then installed win 8.1 in it. Now, grub doesn't show up. what should i do ?

Windows overwrites boot loader with its own. You need to restore grub:

reinstall Linux.

Also, you know what else is wierd? Mispelling the word "wierd": https://dictionary.search.yahoo.com/search;_ylt=A86.JyVlxvxUi0kAd0YnnIlQ?p=weird&.sep=&fr=yhs-mozilla-001

I did that on purpose. Why would you think I looked up the definition, read the word, and not notice that I mis-spelled it in the post??

I'm pretty sure giblit was referring to your misspelling of misspelling.

EDIT: I just noticed how you (IWishIKnew) are doing quotes

If you put an empty tag somewhere in the name of the tag you want to display, it won't parse that tag:

this

[[b][/b]quote=naraku9333][/quote]

becomes this

You guys are way too pedantic. I was trying to make a point by purposely mis-spelling weird. It was for emphasis.

@IWishIKnew Did you even read giblit's and my posts?
