    Talking Booting linux from windows Boot Manager

    I have installed linux(ubuntu) on my dual-boot windows 7 PC. But I don't like the Grub boot loader and now want to boot ubuntu from windows boot manager itself.

    Plz provide me the easiest solution and don't suggest WUBI or fresh installations

    I have not used it, but have a look EasyBCD Free Download.

    You will have to have ubuntu installed on a primary partition and install grub to '/' root unless you have a boot partition. It will complain so you will have to use the force option to install grub. Then run easybcd from Win 7.
