How To Safely Uninstall Ubuntu From A Windows Dual-Boot PC

Posted: 24 Oct 2009 01:00 PM PDT
www.makeuseof.com...[A great site and a great daily email available from them.]

Linux is a great operating system and more often than not, it’s the installation of Linux that is the matter of discussion.

For a change, I will be talking about how to uninstall Linux Ubuntu (or other operating systems) from a dual boot windows pc, and still being able to boot into other OS without much work. So let’s get started right away.
Backup your Linux files

It pops up everytime, but backup really is very important. If you have been using your Linux system for some time, chances are you would have created files you wouldn’t want to loose. In such a case, you can boot into Linux, backup your files (check out your Home directory) on an external device or onto a Windows partition.

Alternatively if you somehow managed to mess up and can’t boot into Linux, you can use ext2 IFS which allows you access to your Linux paritions. It can only read ext2 and ext3 filesystems though. If you are using other filesystems, you would have to look around a bit for a similar application. In any case, you can always boot from a Linux live CD to backup files if everything else fails.

Delete Linux Partitions

Next step: delete every Linux partition. That would include everything – boot, swap, home, whatever way you set up your system, it is time to delete all Linux partitions. There are a couple of ways to achieve this, easiest being from within Windows’ Computer Management. You need to:

how to uninstall ubuntu from dual boot windows pc

* Log in to an account with administrative privileges.
* Right click on My Computer, click ‘Manage’.
* Choose ‘Disk Management’ listed under ‘Storage’ and you will see all of your partitions listed there.

how to uninstall ubuntu from dual boot windows pc

Next, you need to identify Linux partitions. The Linux partitions generally don’t have a file system listed with them if Windows doesn’t recognize it, so this can serve as a clue. Other ways can be identifying by size or partition number. You can use partition managers, these are generally better at identifying filesystems. Go ahead, delete the partitions, just make sure you delete the correct ones. Linux is gone and so is GRUB, which allowed you to choose operating system to use at boot time. So currently, you cannot boot into any other operating system, without some help. We are going to fix that soon.
Restore MBR

As we noted, GRUB is gone and so is the ability to boot into Windows. You would now need to boot from the Windows CD/DVD to restore the Master Boot Record. You can also use other Live CDs like one of my absolute favorites and highly recommended HBCD just in case you don’t have Windows installation media handy. Here are the steps:

* Boot from Windows CD/DVD and choose “Repair” when it shows up.

uninstall ubuntu from dual boot pc

* Choose command prompt on the resulting screen and run the following two commands:
o bootrec /fixmbr
o bootrec /fixboot

XP users need to run the recovery console from Windows XP CD and then type fixmbr when at the command prompt.
Reclaim free space

Restart now, remove the CD and you should be able to boot into your Windows installation. Once there, you should go ahead and reclaim the unpartitioned free space which was previously occupied by Linux. Doing so is simple and straight forward:

* Fire up Disk Management as before.
* Right-click on the unparitioned space, choose new partition or new logical drive.
* Specify the size and other options according to your needs and you are done.

The free space should now be accessible from My Computer like any other partition. Alternatively, you can create multiple partitions from the free space or resize existing partitions to suit your needs.You can use utilities like GParted, Easues Partition Master or any one of the many partition managers on HBCD to perform such advanced tasks easily.

Hiren's BootCD is a live CD containing various diagnostic programs such as partitioning agents, system performance benchmarks, disk cloning and imaging tools, data recovery tools, MBR tools, BIOS tools, and many others for fixing various computer problems.[2] As it is a bootable CD, it can be useful even if the primary operating system cannot be booted. Hiren's Boot CD has an extensive list of software. Utilities with similar functionality on the CD are grouped together and seem redundant; however, they present choices through different UIs and options in what they can do.

While this collection of tools can be very useful, potential users should note that many of the tools are commercial applications that have not been legally licensed for redistribution, and so download/use/sharing of Hiren's BootCD may be illegal (depending on your legal jurisdiction).

The most important news and commentary to read right now. - The Slatest - Slate Magazine: "Watch Out, Wall Street: Government Goes After Insider Trading

Last week, the co-founder of Galleon Group, Raj Rajaratnam, was detained and charged along with five others for their alleged involvement in an insider-trading ring. It was the biggest insider-trading plot in decades, and the news rocked Wall Street. Now, others should be getting ready for the same treatment. After two years of intensive investigations, officials are getting ready to file charges 'against a wider array of insider-trading networks,' reports Bloomberg. Some are linked to the Rajartnam case, which, according to the Wall Street Journal, was broken with the help of three of his former colleagues. Some of these new cases are the result of the same aggressive tactics, such as wiretapping, that resulted in Rajartnam's arrest. But others are the result of a 'secret' Securities and Exchange Commission data-mining project that helps to identify people who were lucky enough to all make the same lucrative investments at the same time."

No-contract $30 / $45 Straight Talk wireless plans storm Walmart

No-contract $30 / $45 Straight Talk wireless plans storm Walmart: "Remember when TracFone horrified the world with its Straight Talk phone selection back in July? Clearly the suits in Bentonville weren't so scared, as now Walmart is latching on to that very plan and claiming it as its own. In over 3,200 of the outfit's retail stores across America, consumers will be able to snag an admittedly pathetic cellie and a rather decent calling plan for just $30 a month. Three Hamiltons gets you 1,000 voice minutes, 1,000 texts and 30MB of mobile web access, not to mention nationwide coverage and free 411 calls. If that's not quite enough, a $45 per month option provides unlimited everything (voice / SMS / mobile web)."

OneLook Dictionary Search

OneLook Dictionary Search: "How do wildcard patterns work?

Sometimes you don't know what word you're looking for or how to spell it. Other times you only know a few letters. For these situations there are 'wildcard' symbols available for finding words on OneLook.com.

* The asterisk (*) matches any number of characters. That means that you can use it as a placeholder for any sequence of letters or symbols. For example, if you enter blueb* you'll get all the terms that start with 'blueb'; if you enter *bird you'll get all the terms that end with 'bird'; if you enter *lueb* you'll get all the terms that contain the sequence 'lueb', and so forth. An asterisk can match zero characters, too.
*

The question mark (?) matches exactly one character. That means that you can use it as a placeholder for a single letter or symbol. The query l?b?n?n, for example, will find the word 'Lebanon'.
*

(NEW!) The number-sign (#) matches any English consonant. For example, the query tra#t finds the word 'tract' but not 'trait'.
*

(NEW!) The at-sign (@) matches any English vowel. For example, the query abo@t finds the word 'about' but not 'abort'."

Google; Minimalist look

Just yesterday we’ve asked you, the readers, whether you actually go to Google.com, and most of you answered that you rarely, if ever, open the actual site, conducting most of your searches from third party apps such as Firefox.

If it was clutter on Google.com that annoyed you – not very likely, given the minimalist look of the page, but still a possibility – you can now fix that by trying out the latest Google experiment, which hides all elements on Google.com except the buttons, the logo and a search box. Don’t worry: the missing elements fade in after you mouse over them.

So, how do you enable the look? Go to Google.com and paste this into the address bar:

javascript:void(document.cookie="PREF=ID=abac7a90f5a3784b:LD=en:NR=10:TM=1254990196:LM=1254990236:S=uB6F4jDnMP_DuxtT;path=/; domain=.google.com");

Now hit the return key and reload the page; next time you open it, you’ll be greeted with the barebone version.

*Update: this particular prototype might not work with all browsers and with all setups. I’ve tested it with Firefox 3.5.3, as well as Chrome 3.0.195.25 and it worked.

To restore the standard Google.com, go to Firefox Options – Privacy – Remove individual cookies, then find Google.com and remove the cookie named PREF.

MOD Systems rolls out kiosks at national chain - 10/2/2009 - Video Business

MOD Systems rolls out kiosks at national chain - 10/2/2009 - Video Business: "DIGITAL: Star Trek, Half-Blood Prince in holiday SD card tests
By Jennifer Netherby -- Video Business, 10/2/2009

OCT. 2 | DIGITAL: Digital movie kiosk company MOD Systems will begin rolling out kiosks with films from Warner Bros., Paramount Pictures and Anchor Bay through a national retailer in the next month as part of a pilot test, CEO Anthony Bay told Video Business.

Bay said test kiosks should be in stores by Nov. 15, though he wouldn’t give many other details. Consumers will be able to visit the kiosks, search and download films to an SD card, the same cards used to store digital photos on digital cameras. The cards can be placed in SD card slots found on some TVs, PCs, DVD players, mobile phones and other devices for movie playback."

Puppy Linux Community - Home

Rod Page of the Retired Scientists brought this up again at the meeting this afternoon. (10/1/09)
Puppy Linux Community - Home Redux.

How is Puppy Different?
* Small size, ~100MB! This lends itself to some very useful and unique features.
* 'Live' booting from CDs, DVDs, USB flash drives, and other portable media.
* Runs from RAM, making it unusually fast even in old PCs and in netbooks with solid state storage media.
* Very low minimum system requirements.
* Boot time is well under a minute, 30-40 seconds in most systems.
* Includes a wide range of applications: word processors, spreadsheets, internet browsers, games, image editors and many utilities. Extra software in the form of dotpets. There is a GUI Puppy Software Installer included.
* Puppy is easy to use and little technical knowledge is assumed. Most hardware is automatically detected.
