I am dual booting Windows 7 and Ubuntu Karmic. After upgrading some packages in Ubuntu and restarting I cant boot into Ubuntu. The first Grub menu appears where I get to choose if I want to boot into windows or Ubuntu. I can pick Ubuntu, but it doesn't go into the second Grub menu, all I get is Grub 1.45 beta (i think, its 1.something). Where I'm then ask for some bash code line thing.

I'm pretty new to Ubuntu and really like it so far, can someone please help me get back into Ubuntu.

Is this a wubi install. (otherwise I do not think you get two menus)

It is a wubi install. I try changing the wubi boot file, but I get the same screen. GNU Grub 1.97 Beta4, and sh:grub>.
