restoring GRUB after windows 7 install along side Debian set-up with LUKS+LVM

August 11th, 2011 - 07:50 am ET by yudi v | Report spam

Hi

I will be installing Windows7 along side Debian on a 4 KB sector hard drive.
Debian's configured with LVM on top of LUKS.

From what I understand I can restore GRUB using the Debian install disk by


going in to the advanced options and choosing rescue mode.
What are the potential issues I need to be aware of before restoring GRUB
using the Debian DVD install disk?
Kind regards,
Yudi

W7 does not mangle the mbr any longer. After install, go to debian and run
update-grub to get a bootable W7.
