Idea #1917: Add a Restore Bootmanager option to the live cd

bug This idea is a duplicate of Idea #1242: Restoring the bootloader by Ubuntu installation CD.
Written by tenchi39 the 29 Feb 08 at 22:55. Category: System. Related project: Nothing/Others. Status: New
Rationale
If you install win, it kills grub :-P

There should be an option in the live cd grub to restore grub with the settings from the ubuntu root partition...

I have restored grub a few times through the commandline in the using the livecd. As a newbie it was very hard to do.
