			<description><![CDATA[<p>One of the most common errors that people do when they are installing a dual OS (Windows/Linux) is to install first linux and then windows next .<br />If the windows OS is 8 or above then it is even worst , because windows 8 on installing create 2 partitions on hard disk for itself .<br />So , if your case is this one , and you lost your grub bootloader and now computer goes directly to windows , then what you should do is :</p><p>1st : download this image &quot;super_grub2_disk_hybrid_2.02s6.iso&quot;<br /><a href="https://sourceforge.net/projects/supergrub2/files/2.02s6/super_grub2_disk_hybrid_2.02s6.iso/download" rel="nofollow">https://sourceforge.net/projects/superg … o/download</a></p><p>2nd - download W32 Disk image writer and install it on your windows<br /><a href="https://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/" rel="nofollow">https://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/</a></p><p>3rd - get an usb storage pen to write the image from supergrub 2 .</p><p>4th - write the image<br />(my case was drive K , but you should check witch drive letter is assigned from windows to your USB pen and select it , by default is a (removable drive) . <br /><a href="https://postimg.org/image/7zv6j01xj/" rel="nofollow"><span class="postimg"><img src="https://s23.postimg.org/7zv6j01xj/image_writer.jpg" alt="image_writer.jpg" /></span></a></p><p><strong> you can also instead using an usb pen , you can write this image on a CD that will work too</strong></p><p>5th - After the image is writen on your USB pen or CD , reboot your computer and press continually F12 to get boot startup selection .<br />(the command could be different from bios to bios manufacturer , some bios is F11 instead F12)<br /><a href="https://postimg.org/image/n1m53vl0p/" rel="nofollow"><span class="postimg"><img src="https://s28.postimg.org/n1m53vl0p/bios_boot.jpg" alt="bios_boot.jpg" /></span></a></p><p>(In my case is an usb pen drive , and its name is &quot;Kingston data traveler&quot; , but yours will have other name &quot;in case other pen brand&quot; , or if you are using a CD then you must select your CD drive to bios start up .)<br /><strong> you must have your pen inserted on a USB port , or your CD with supergrub image&#160; when you are rebooting the computer .</strong></p><p>6th - when your Usb pen or CD start to boot , this screen from grub will popup .<br /><a href="https://postimg.org/image/ah5ih3uoh/" rel="nofollow"><span class="postimg"><img src="https://s24.postimg.org/ah5ih3uoh/grub_detect.jpg" alt="grub_detect.jpg" /></span></a><br />(select to detect and show boot methods)</p><p>7th - after 1 minute of searching the hard disks , grub wll show your installed operating systems , and give you an option to select to witch one you want to start .<br /><a href="https://postimg.org/image/pc1bcejxt/" rel="nofollow"><span class="postimg"><img src="https://s24.postimg.org/pc1bcejxt/Devuan_grub.jpg" alt="Devuan_grub.jpg" /></span></a><br /><strong> My case shows kali linux , because my devuan was migrated from a kali wheezy distribution , but yours will show (Devuan GNU/linux) , or whatever linux name distribution you have installed </strong></p><p>Select yours like it is in the image before .</p><p>8th - You will boot to your linux , and now you have to reinstall grub again on your hard disk boot record , to do that open a terminal in your linux and write :</p><div class="codebox"><pre><code>grub-install  /dev/sda</code></pre></div><p>(by default the first hard disk on bios boot is sda on linux<br /><a href="https://postimg.org/image/igdjn3w4n/" rel="nofollow"><span class="postimg"><img src="https://s23.postimg.org/igdjn3w4n/grub_install.png" alt="grub_install.png" /></span></a></p><p>9th - After grub been installed , all you have to do is to update grub and reboot your computer .</p><div class="codebox"><pre><code>update-grub</code></pre></div><p><a href="https://postimg.org/image/on9hydlbj/" rel="nofollow"><span class="postimg"><img src="https://s27.postimg.org/on9hydlbj/grub_update.png" alt="grub_update.png" /></span></a></p><p><strong> To reboot linux you may go to your linux top panel and select reboot , or in the terminal window write (reboot)</strong></p><div class="codebox"><pre><code>reboot</code></pre></div><p>Computer will reboot and your grub menu will appear with your previous boot options to you to choose.</p><p><strong> VERY IMPORTANT : Do not install grub on secondary partitions on your hard disk , like (sda1 , sda2 , sdb1 , etc,,,) , this will problably damage the data on those partitions. USE only (sda , sdb , etc... depending on your case) </strong></p>]]></description>
