Installing Windows XP & Ubuntu

Asked by Sirish

Hi ALL,
  I had Ubuntu 6 & Windows XP PROF installed on my notebook. Had to format XP Prof & reinstall, Now when I am booting the machine its redirecting to XP only. I checked the Partitions Ubuntu is still there. Can anyone guide me how to go about dual booting the two. As of now I don't have the Ubuntu CD with me. Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated.

Thanks

Have a look at http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/dualboot. But maybe you have to install Ubuntu again.

Hope it helps.
