here's the problem:

update manager reported some updates including kernel update to version 2.6.31-19.

after update system won't boot. it crashes into bash shell. i've manually loaded kernel version 16 with following command:


linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31.16-generic root=/dev/sdc1 loop=/ubuntu/disks/root.disk ro

initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.31-16-generic

boot

in my case sdc1 is ubuntu drive. i also run


sudo update-grub

in terminal. it didn't help. after restart it fall into bash shell.

same thing hapend when version 17 came up. I definetlly NEVER again going to update kernel. What do I need to do now? should I uninstall latest kernel...if that is posible?

thnx

I'm running ubuntu 9.10 (via wubi) and windows xp.
