Do you think Grub2Win can work alongside of Ubuntu grub?

If Grub2Win finds more than 5 EFI partitions, instead of aborting, Grub2Win will now issue warning messages and ignore those additional...

Is there a file that contains that info; so I could possibly watch out for it in the future.

The Ubuntu kernel was GNU Grub 2.04 The Grub2Win kernel is GNU Grub 2.06. The mismatch probably caused your "unaligned pointer" error. Dave...

Thank you for the feedback. I would be very interested to hear about specific errors.

Please be careful. You should realize that having multiple EFI partitions is the number one cause of boot problems that I encounter. These errors...

I was successful in uninstalling grub2win in all drives. I also installed grub2 under linux and it boots ALL systems as in my previous system build. Thanks for trying.

I removed the last disc and ran the program with 5 esp showing. I added three linux partitions, and tried to boot. The esp partitions on all discs were made to have grub2win directories added from the grub2win program. THE COMPUTER DOES NOT BOOT TO GRUB. The message shown on the monitor is ( 0x57ec4bbd unaligned pointer aborted ) The computer then proceed to show the normal multi boot screen and boots correctly. The firmware has the grub2win as the first boot device. Seems this EFI type computer...

There is normally only one. Would you...
