    The thing is when I type "root (hdX,X) or whatever I can never find one that works I don't know what to choose

    This is the picture of my hdd setup can someone tell me what to type because find /boot/grub/stage1" does not work.



    The 51GB partition is Windows the 40GB partition is Ubuntu, the others are just NTFS Data Storage

    BTW, I'm using the Edgy Eft AMD64 live CD
