stuck with grub prompt at boot time ?

If you were trying to install Linux as dual partition on you windows OS, and during installation something goes wrong!!
Or while you are booting your system if you are stuck with a grup prompt don’t panic you can get back to you safe haven (windows OS) by just fallowing these 4 steps.


grub > root (hd0,0)
that is assuming your windows partition is on hda (primary master, first partiton - adjust the numbers accordingly)
grub > makeactive
grub > chainloader +1
grub > boot
