Just 2 questions:

I installed Ubuntu a few days ago and the bootloader did not install properly. My main install is Windows on a RAID 0 array. I have a third S-ata drive that i put Ubuntu on. During the install it must have installed it on the Linux drive(maybe because it couldn't put it on the raid?)

I was wondering if there is just a boot loader that i can install seperately from Windows, thus putting it on the MBR?

also my internet is not working properly, It will not go to many sites, and if i do get into a site, it will not follow links.... It is set up to automatically deteck settings, just like i have it in windows...

I am new to Linux and I dont even know where to start...

I also get errors when I try to update the package managers and stuff like that, so not sure what to do
