EXT2 is a filesystem. Like FAT and NTFS for Windows, It doesn't have a boot record. It all comes down if you use MBR or GPT partition tables on the disk. The former will have what you are looking for, whereas GPT only has a "protective" one.

What command is used by Windows 2000XP to replace the Master boot program program with a fresh one?

To fix the Master Boot Record on a Windows 2000/xp computer you must: 1. Boot to the install media 2. When prompted, choose Repair. ultimately, you'll access the Repair Console 3. If necessary, log into your Windows application 4. There is a utility on the install media called FIXMBR.exe, On the command prompt, type FIXMBR and press enter. When Windows is installed, it creates the Master Boot Record on the first sector of the first hard drive. It makes a second copy or backup of the Master Boot Record immediately after the original on the hard drive. FIXMBR copies this backup copy of the MBR to the MBR location. If you still cannot boot, repeat steps 1-3 above: 4. There is a utility on the install media called FIXBOOT.exe. on the command prompt, type FIXBOOT and press enter. When FIXMBR fails to restore the Master Boot Record, FIXBOOT will read the information of the install and rebuild the master boot record from scratch and install it on the first sector of the hard drive. It will also create the backup.

Is there a way to dual boot 2 or 3 different Linux distributions on a laptop?

Yes. Multi-booting operating systems on a laptop is accomplished in the same manner as with a desktop system. Each operating system needs to reside on its own partition on the hard drive. The boot-loader (GRUB or LILO), which is installed on the Master Boot Record, will determine how the individual operating systems are booted.There are numerous tutorials online for multi-booting Linux on your computer. Try a Google search using the terms "Linux multi-boot tutorial".Luck!

What stage of the grub boot loader typically resides on the master boot record?

Stage 1. It's a very VERY small program less than 500 bytes in size (Due to the limitations in the BIOS standard which forces MBRs to be almost unusably small by today's standards.) whose sole purpose is to load Stage 1.5 and, later, Stage 2 into memory and execute them, which will of course in turn load and run either a kernel or another bootloader.

You install ubuntu 8.0 and winxp was already installed then in xp you formate the drive on which ubuntu was installed now you cant accsess your OS choice menu their is some error no 17 grub?

The GRUB bootloader gets it's menu off of the Ubuntu partition. Since you deleted the Ubuntu partition, it can't read the list or know what to do next. You have two options:1. Reinstall Ubuntu.2. Boot from the Window XP CD, access the Recovery Console, and runfdisk /mbrThis will rewrite the Master Boot Record, and shouldallow you to boot back into Windows.
