Hello. Let me say some background.
The PC that is affected by this is an Acer Aspire One AOA150 (codename ZG5), And it had a triple boot with XP Home, JoliOS 1.2, and Kubuntu 10.10 with KDE 4.6.
On the JoliOS partition, I usually try linux distributions on that partition. 11.04 was out so I thought, why not?
So after I booted into the DVD I installed it directly from that selection menu, and the install went kinda well...
Then it was time to reboot, after a nice reboot I was happy and ready to try out Natty, then sadness and anger awaits when I see this screen:
Code:
Error: the symbol 'grub_xputs' not found
grub rescue>
I tried using a XP disc to repair the MBR, after all I did backup all settings, files and etc. But turns out the XP disc was scratched, so a required INF file was not found.
I thought reinstalling Natty. But my computer has this weird way of booting into Linux discs.. I usually need to boot into any OS on the computer, restart and the press F12, then it would boot. If I don't do that.. it'd go into the HDD instead with that usual GRUB selection screen. But being unable to boot from any of my OS'es that won't do any good.
I am using an external CD/DVD drive. Any help on how I can fix this even with all these problems?
