Re: recovering win7

[Jake Thomas]

I have personally "repaired" after Grub for Windows a few times.

It's pretty quick and easy once booted into the repair disc. However, it takes 
an absurdly long time to boot into the repair disc.

This is easy to fix. Worst-case scenario, you just zero-over the MBR with dd: 
"sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=[the hard drive] count=1 bs=512", and re-install 
Windows.

Or, you can more directly boot Windows from Grub with the ntldr command.
