Hi,
I made a fresh install of Karmic and got the following problem: when I restarted the computer I got the following:
GRUB Loading:
error: no such device df5d2965-fb8a-4140-ad6f-2ae18ce64475
After getting that error, Ubuntu starts, but completely skipping the GRUB boot menu.
With Ubuntu 9.04 there were issues with people having a separate boot partition, so I don't know if that is still the case with Ubuntu 9.10
my fstab file is like follows:
