Not with a Wubi install, use a normal install.

Of course, because there is essentially no difference between what he told you to do and what I told you to do... ;)

He just skipped the part where I showed you how to figure out what your / partition actually is.

Exactly.

Also, I will also affirm that a Wubi install will not work. "sudo grub-install /dev/sda1" is reporting the error that stage1 cannot be read because it's looking for the stage1 booter in the bootsector of the partition. Since it's not a real partition and only a file, there's no bootsector on that file. Therefor, it cannot read the file. It will only complete the install when it finds a valid stage1 booter in the bootsector, so do a regular full install.

Ohh so I can't partition the drive that I'm wanting to run windows 7 and linux on with chameleon recognizing linux?

Quick question. What is Wubi install? Is that when you install 2 operating systems on one HD?
