I need to make Windows 7 (installation) partition bootable. Currently I have Linux Mint 18.



I managed to add it to the Grub menu, but apparently it attempts to load from wrong point (since the title in Grub menu is "Windows Recovery" instead of "Installation"). So when I choose it, I get following error:



enter image description here



(Except the status is "0xc000000e", not "f".)



There is many tutorials out there explaining how to make installation partition bootable from Windows, but how to do it from Linux? These Windows tutorials often suggest running X:bootbootsect.exe /nt60 Y: command (where X: is a mounted Windows installation image and Y: is a target partition) to set appropriate boot section on a target partition. So I suppose I have to do something similar in Linux?



Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • If you have the installation disk of windows then you just repair mbr and make windows partition bootable again.

  • Look like Microsoft Digital Restrictive Management. It wants you to insert the MS-Windows installation disk.

  • Have you considered an alternative to duel boot. Run one of the OSs in virtual box.
