There will be soon if I don't find a distro that is pain free. I
solved last weeks MBR problem, this week it's duel/dual boot that is
giving me grief. Ubuntu is ignoring the Windows partition and doesn't
include it as an option in Grub.
Also, while we're on the Ubuntu pros/cons list, I've also found that
it doesn't read FAT partitions properly. Having asked it to mount a
couple of partitions that I want to share between OSs, it doesn't read
the contents of the drives correctly - folders just read as zero k and
you can do nothing with them. Weird.
I'm digging the clean lines and the latte brown, but other than that...
