Default Dual Boot Issues (noob)
HI guys,

I have been using Ubuntu for a few months, got a bit interested in console/terminal/commandy stuff;
  • Aquired old machine,
  • wiped HDD
  • installed FreeBSD 9.0
  • realised I'm jumping in at the deep end
  • would also like ubuntu on the same disc (so installed in parrellel)
  • no dual boot options when loading, straight to FreeBSD boot

So my question is: how do I force a grub scenario where I can select which OS to boot?

Thanks in advance,
Yours Linuxidiotnoob
