Idea #26988: I can't log into ubuntu lucid after W7 installation and get erros from terminal

bug This idea is a duplicate of Idea #1242: Restoring the bootloader by Ubuntu installation CD.
Written by checoimg the 18 Jan 11 at 02:52. Related project: Wubi Windows installer. Status: New
Rationale
Well dual booters may want to reinstall windows sometimes so they need to install Grub from terminal on a live session. But lately I get errors doing this.

Solution #2: Ability to easily repair grub MBR from live cd
Written by aliam13_2 the 18 Jan 11 at 14:06.
Add the ability (may be as an option on the initial menu) to repair the grub installation in the MBR. This can be done from the command line, but this is harder than using a GUI / wizard.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think WUBI installs Grub so maybe its very simple just to add a boton to repeat that action than making a wizard. But If they can add more then that is good anyway. I pasted the EasyBCD like an example for a wizard.

That is from WUBI to WUBI installation. Mi idea is from WUBI to Full installation.
