I did a hardware reset of my computer, while running ubuntu 8.10 and now, I am not able to restart it.
While booting it in recovery mode, it pops up a message that "Unable to find root disk, after waiting for it" and opens an ash shell.
I tried to copy my files into a separate disk and tried to reinstall it from a live cd, but again there seems to be some problem. while installation it is not able to detect an partitions on my system.
I tried to read some help and tried to reinstall grub, but even that seems to be having a problem. The file /boot/grub/stage1 doesnt seems to be existing. It gives me an error when i try this
sudo grub
grub>find /boot/grub/stage1
Error 15: File not found
I know that i have only one hard disk and ubuntu is installed in the third partition, so i tried this:
root (hd0,2)
It gives an error that he selected disk doesn't exists.
Any help regarding this would be appreciated.
