Grub Error 17

[manic111]

I have Ubuntu 8.10 installed on an SD card in my Eee PC, with XP still on the SSDs. to boot Ubuntu I must go into the BIOS and switch to booting from the SD rather than the SSD. However, recently I have been getting Grub error 17.

I assume that I need to reinstall Grub to fix this - how do I go about doing so?

Secondly, is it possible for me to reinstall Grub on the SSD so I don't need to go into the BIOS to switch between Windows and Ubuntu?

Cheers

I can't - can't get into Ubuntu to do so!

Oh really? Didn't realise that, assumed that it would just take me into the live installation. I need to find a 1GB USB stick to put the live CD on before I can do that then, don't think that I have one - will try to get hold of one from work tomorrow, so I'll get back to you then!
