Hi,
I searched google and this forum for help on this issue, and none of the solutions I read worked, so I'm starting this new thread.
Anyways, I have an old athlon 3800+ x2 computer with one ide hard drive (windows xp) and one sata hard drive (ubuntu). My recently upgraded to 12.04 with an old kernel (3.0) because the 3.2 kernel panics when I try to start up. And I finally decided to upgrade to grub2 because I couldn't help myself, I was in some upgrading mood.
I did all the "update-grub2" and "upgrade-from-grub-legacy", and I made sure to select my /dev/sdb1 drive because that's where my /boot partition was located. Anyways, after I rebooted, I got the
Grub Loading stage 1.5.
GRUB loading, please wait...
Error 15
So I tried to fix it by following instructions from places like here. I spent so much time trying to fix it, that I decided to format and re-install my /boot and / partitions using Ubuntu 11.10.
That didn't work either. I still got the Error 15. Then I decided to unplug my sata cable and boot up from my windows hard drive only, so I could get some work done. I could not boot up windows xp. I got the Grub Error 15 message.
I reinstalled my windows C: partition, and now I can boot up to windows.
What should I do next? Right now I'm thinking of re-install grub 1.5. Thanks for any help anyone can provide.
