Today I upgraded from Ubuntu 8.10 to the Beta of Ubuntu 9.04. Problem is, now menu.lst is messed up, and now I get Error 17: Unable to Mount Partition when I try to boot. I went into the GRUB Setup and saw this:
root ()/ubuntu/disks
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.28-11-generic root=UUID=1db4b521-4762-43cf-81ab-c9eb037e087a ro ROOTFLAGS=syncio single
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.28-11-generic
I knew that root ()/ubuntu/disks should be root (hd0,1) from previous problems, but even after changing it to that, I still get Error 17. I went into the GRUB Command-Line and tried this:
root (hd0,1)
setup (hd0)
I saw this on Google, and tried it, but it gave me Error 17. Anyone have any advice? I don't want to lose everything. I have a Windows XP Installation lost in there, along with lots of C++ Code, .SO Files, Sprites, and Music for my Game in there! D:
