just got a macbook air.... love it. i had a dual boot system running well with osx and windows7.
i was going to try to install linux on a third parition. here's where it had gone wrong. i made the 3rd parition through windows in the device manager under the storage option and created the 3rd parition. i rebooted and attempted to use the bootable usb key with ubuntu on it but it didnt work. i tried using the refit option during boot up to update the bootloader and it did just that. after that i wanted to install ubuntu while on windows7 but i couldnt get into windows because i got a blank screen with "missing operating system"
how can i fix my bootloader? and merge the blank volume parition back to the windows7 parition?
