I am completely new to Linux so be gentle. I recently became confident with Ubuntu 8.10 and decided was finally ready to dump windows forever, so I deleted my win xp partition. After that I got error 17 in grub. I tried in vain to reinstall grub. I decided to install a second copy of ubuntu, this reinstalled grub and I can now boot my original install of ubuntu. It is listed as other operating systems at start up.

How can I un-install the second copy of ubuntu and not mess up grub?

type sudo fdisk -lu in the terminal (applications/accessories/terminal)

and they type you password and post your results. This will show what is on your drives and if you do indeed have two copies.

hmm lots of linux partitions there, gonna need more info to sort out which to keep and which partitions to redo.


download this

http://sourceforge.net/project/platformdownload.php?group_id=250055

then do this


sudo bash ~/Desktop/boot_info_script*.sh


post the results to this forum and indicate which version of ubuntu you were expecting to keep.

all info is here to correct your install, I must apologize though, fixing this is a bit beyond my abilities however there are plenty other that will know exactly how to redo this. the fix is rather simple, but i do not feel comfortable enough to advise. a little patience and i'm sure that more better brains than mine can get you going again.

I agree. Being that you wanted to get rid of your windows installation anyway and by the looks of you disk as it is (a mess). If it were me I would format the hard drive and start with a nice clean and fresh drive and install Ubuntu from scratch. But, I would wait a little and see if someone has a better idea on how to clean up you partitions and get you going.

Thanks guys. Reinstalling with a clean drive was my next option. I did want to avoid that if possible though as I had spent a long time setting up Ubuntu just the way I wanted it.

Take a look at Super Ubuntu (look for on the web). It has a lot of the extra software and drivers that you would normally install already on it. It might same you some time.
