i wanted install service pack 1 update on dual booted windows 7 , ubuntu 14.04. wanted make sure if doing safe or not? had followed this tutorial perform dual boot. after following tutorial booting directly windows , had use boot repair , grub customizer fix related issues. suggestions must prevent problems might encounter?

edit - please allow me delete question here before can post on superuser.

as rinzwind says, backup, backup, backup. have ubuntu live-media available reinstall grub (very likely). know sector start/end of every partition on disk (may ease recovery of working filesystem in cases). know packages installed, can recreate system scratch (backup applies files, setting customized system not trivial). assume worst, , ready recovery. maybe absolutely nothing happen grub or partitions/files, maybe grabbed windows , made "recovery" partitions -- ready deal that.
