Thread: Can't boot Ubuntu after upgrade to 9.10

-

hi,
i've searched threads no luck. i'm newbe ubuntu.

here's problem:
upgraded 9.04 9.10. during restart grub load stage1.5 menu (dual-boot vista). no matter version of ubuntu select ("recovery mode" or "generic") same results. tried live version of 9.10 cd won't recognize linux partition in "places" (tried sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt keeps asking file system). after grub menu selection, ubuntu logo moving bar comes on screen. next, graphics disappear , folowing text on black screen:

init: ureadahead main process (2833) terminated status 5
mountall:/proc: unable mount: device or resource busy
mountall:/proc/self/mountinfo: no such file or directory
mountall: root filesystem isn't mounted
init: mountall main process (2834) terminated status 1
general error mounting filesystems.
maintenance shall started.
control-d terminate shell , re-try.
give root password maintenance
(or type control-d continue):

using control-d gives same info except "main process number" chanes (i.e., 2866, 2867, 2875, etc). i've pressed control-d 60 times no luck.

if type password get:

root@don-linux:~#

none of commands i've written down other threads work @ prompt.

i'm loving ubuntu having trouble command line structure of it.

can me this?

in advance,
coolmod_200

hi,

if faced that.... after calming down, i'd re-install grub2. seems route of least pain you, appears pretty messed up.

need know partition ubuntu on - covered in drs's excellent how-to

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...ghlight=drs305

want heading section 12.

if instructions don't work, points towards grub2 - reinstalling grub 2:

more involved method. 1 of 2 & running.

if, after getting ubuntu back, win area has vanished, there's how-to that, --> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1014708

remember - you're in grub2, not grub legacy.

regards,

phill.

Valutazione Template - Joomla! Forum - community, help and support

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!

i wondering if there preferred convention appending data logged?  see standard sd example uses: code: [select] void loop() {   // make string assembling data log:   string datastring = "";   // read 3 sensors , append string:   (int analogpin = 0; analogpin < 3; analogpin++) {     int sensor = analogread(analogpin);     datastring += string(sensor);     if (analogpin < 2) {       datastring += ",";     }   } creating string called datastring, , appending it, have seen in forums string not liked.  around this, code data logging looks this: code: [select] void sdupdate() {   datetime = rtc.now();   unsigned int hour = now.hour();   unsigned int minute = now.minute();   unsigned int second = now.second();   char datastring[100] = "";   char char_current_pay[15] = "";   char char_overall_pay[15] = ""; ...
