Je suis using grub as par défaut boot loader for my dual boot laptop (DELL Vostro 3750). My système is actuellement undergoing a redémarrer loop (infinite) parce que of Windows Mise à jour 3033929.
As described [here](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3033929):
>
Some utilisateurs cannot installer this sécurité mise à jour if their ordinateurs meet
the following conditions: Have a multiple-boot configuration of
Windows and various distributions of Linux
A possible solution seems to be:

To work around that problème, vous pouvez either use Windows as the par défaut
boot loader
A lot of articles describe comment set Windows as par défaut grub entry upon start but that is entierely different from qu'est-ce que described as possible solution.
So could quelqu'un veuillez describe a fonctionnel solution (step-by-step) to installer `Windows Update 3033929` on a dual boot système (grub 1.99-27+deb7u2 avec: debian wheezy and windows 7/64bits). Both partitions reside sur le same disk, respectively: `sda5` and `sda2`, so I cannot use the solution described [here](http://darkling.poppameth.com/windows-update-kb3033929-update-loop/).
A possible solution which J'ai trouvé online was to supprimer grub completely, but that seems like an overkill solution (également I would not even know comment re-installer it afterward). Je voudrais également avoid a solution as listed [here](http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-windows_update/kb3033929-fails-to-install-and-cause-a-minor/4c56d5d5-a66c-4865-8ccb-d36f7c314c33?page=5) where grub boot loader is supprimé and replaced by `Windows 7's "bootmgr"`.
Installationing Windows Mise à jour 3033929
Re: Installationing Windows Mise à jour 3033929
The article [Windows Update KB3033929 Update Loop](http://darkling.poppameth.com/windows-update-kb3033929-update-loop/) contains the seulement
two known solutions for this mise à jour loop.
Avant starting, I suggest taking an image backup du entire disk
and verifying that you have the proper boot CD or USB required to restore
it in case of catastrophe.
I would suggest dans le future to toujours take such an image backup avant
doing Windows Mise à jour, and leaving it in manual mode.
**Easy case : Windows is installé on a separate disk**
- Shutdown the ordinateur and unplug the non-Windows drive, or if this is
supported by the BIOS ensuite définissez le boot disk vers le one containing Windows.
- Reboot directly into Windows and installez le KB3033929 mise à jour.
- Reboot again to configurer the mise à jour.
- Once tout is installé and operating correctly, shutdown the PC and reconnect the Linux drive.
- Tout devrait être back to normal sur votre next redémarrer.
- Sinon, use F8 during Windows boot to boot into Safe mode and
reset Windows Mise à jour to "Notify but let me télécharger",
or set this mise à jour to "Jamais show", afin de avoid l'installation it
until Microsoft finally gets it right.
**Hard case : Both Windows and Linux are installé on same disk**
In this case you must replace the bootloader by that of Windows,
let this mise à jour installer itself, ensuite return GRUB.
The steps are as follows :
-
Boot depuis le Windows installation media and choose the
Invite de commandes repair option.
-
Tapez the following and appuyez sur Enter:
`Bootrec.exe /FixBoot`
Ensuite tapez and appuyez sur Enter:
`Bootrec.exe /FixMbr`
-
Reboot straight into Windows (Grub is no longer there).
-
Installez le problematic mise à jour and get Windows up and running correctly.
-
To get GRUB back, boot ordinateur into a live Linux CD or USB
and choose to "try" the OS.
-
Find out on which partition Linux is installé,
perhaps by using the Gparted utility to trouvez le root "/" partition.
Let’s assume c'est on sda1.
-
To mount that partition. Open a terminal and tapez and appuyez sur Enter:
`sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt`
- Reinstall grub avec the following command:
`sudo grub-install /dev/sda –root-directory=/mnt`
-
Supprimez le installation media and redémarrer.
The Grub bootloader will seulement show the Linux installation.
-
To fix this, boot vers le Linux desktop, open a terminal and run this command for it to pick up all disponible OS sur le machine:
`sudo update-grub`
-
Reboot and vous devriez maintenant have Grub functioning and your Windows installer as a bootable option.
-
Si le above n'a pas work for you, try the alternate method
