grub2 - recovering linux boot loader after reinstalling windows


Possible Duplicate:
How can I repair grub? (How to get Ubuntu back after installing Windows?)







i have a notebook in which i installed windows, and then linux on another partition.
Today, i had to reinstall windows and now i don't have access to the boot menu when the computer boots.
Now i can't seem to get the grub boot menu, so i can't access my linux system.



I have tried to follow these instructions from the Ubuntu Documentation, but i can't seem to get it.



I ran the Ubuntu Live CD and
1 - I can't find Boot-Repair
2 - in the terminal, when i run fdisk -l, i get:




/dev/sda1 - HPFS/NTFS/exFAT  
/dev/sda2 - HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sda3 - Extended
/dev/sda5 - HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sda6 - HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sda7 - Linux swap / Solaris


Please help, thanks
