How to Remove Ubuntu Netbook Remix Without Windows CD and Restore Windows MBR

how-to-remove-ubuntu-netbook-remix-without-windows-cd-and-restore-windows-mbr

I ran across the issue the other day with my netbook. I wanted to remove Ubuntu Netbook Remix, but deleting the Linux partition would cause GRUB, the bootloader, to cause errors. GRUB is usually removed by using a Windows Operating System Install CD and running commands through a special prompt. However, since netbooks don’t have CD drives, this was an issue. Sure, I could have done something through a USB flash drive or even through a USB external DVD/CD drive, but no, I found an even easier way to do it. You can restore your MBR without any devices needed and you don’t even have to restart your computer. I added this information to the Review: Ubuntu Netbook Remix, as well as informaton on how to delete the Linux partition on a dual boot Windows-Linux environment. Hope it helps!

Mozilla Changes Release Cycle

Firefox normally adds new features once or twice a year during upgrade. However, they have decided that from now on they will add new functions during their normal security updates, which is pretty cool in my opinion. Firefox 3.7 has been dropped from the schedule because of this. Read More Here.

For those who haven’t done so yet, and are keeping as up-to-date with Firefox as possible (not counting betas), Firefox has recently released their 3.5.7 update. It was actually released January 5th so I’m a bit late to post about this. It fixes a handful of stability issues, as well as some presentation issues. The changelog can be viewed Here. Release notes can be viewed Here.
