Thread: Stuck in Grub prompt AGAIN. (Ubuntu 9.1, newest kernel)

-

this kinda last stand me.

running ubuntu9.1/xp dual-boot , on 4th wubi installation.
first 3 had crashed within day of use after updating 2.6.31-15.

4th time updated -14 -16, updated grub, , worked perfect, ati wonder tv card =]
has been working great 2 weeks, restarts every day.
last night, though, came home , noticed system frozen , ended having hard reboot.

when booted , chose ubuntu went strait dreaded grub prompt (1.97 beta4). happened on -15 when had hard reboot. last time able boot using:
code:
linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-14-generic root=/dev/sda1 loop=/ubuntu/disks/root.disk ro single initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.31-14-generic boot
now, when try either -14 or -16 reads "file not found".
have checked misspellings , ran these multiple times getting same response. positive installation on sda1, too.

have tried running live cd , mounting filesystem updating grub.
far:
code:
sudo fdisk -l sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt sudo mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev
after last command "mount point not found /mnt/dev"

seems me if installation isn't there?
possible when ubuntu folders still intact on drive?

last shot going give ubuntu, love it, after re-install takes on day how was, , lose lot of work in process

bump

salve, prima di installare joomla, vorrei porvi tre semplici domande: 1) l'ultima versione in italiano di joomla, supporta questo template prodotto da gavik? loro scrivono che non è un semplice template, ma una vera e propria suite, ma vorrei una vostra opinione. qui sono descritte le funzioni della suite. 2) per sfruttare gli elementi che si vedono nella pagina, ad esempio quello in alto sinistra dove scorrono le notizie, occorre installare qualche componente aggiuntivo? 3) futuri upgrade alla piattaforma joomla, potranno inficiare il funzionamento o la compatibilità del template? vi ringrazio anticipatamente della disponibilità. 1) non vedo nulla di particolare se non una miriade di posizioni per blocchi 2) è un modulo se non sbaglio pagamento, ma adesso non ricordo bene 3) no. ti ricordo che devi installare joomla  1.0.12 Board index Joomla!
