ok as far as BootIt goes.

haven't really had time to try it out because i'm working this week-end but i will let you know how it works out.

tnx again

just an update Brian,

i followed the instructions in one of your post in this thread:
http://www.terabyteunlimited.com/ucf....php?f=4&t=534

i restored the Ubuntu image using "0" instead of Auto and everything works fine.

i know this is a very specialized topic but hopefully this can help somebody else.

many thanks again Brian for taking the time to solve this situation.
i certainly would not have been able to figure this out by myself.

TeraByte really should have you on their payroll.

Excellent!

Tom Pfeifer provided the information on the excess sectors used by Grub2. He's in the process of determining whether this applies to other Linux distros.
