Hello!
I'm trying to fix the partitions on my laptop.
Here's how it was setup before I made the change:
dev/sda1 ext4 (8 gigs) <-- This is where my original karmic installation was
dev/sda2 ntfs (100 mb) (Windows 7 System Partition thingy)
dev/sda3 ntfs (175 gigs) <-- Windows 7 install
So first I shrunk the windows partition to about 150 gigs, and used the unallocated 25 or gigs and formatted it as ext4 and copied dev/sda1 to it.
Now I have all the same as above now with
dev/sda4 > extended
dev/sda5 (25 gigs) (COPIED VERSION OF sda1)
so I had two installations of ubuntu and deleted the sda1 partition. Now I get a GRUB Error 17 when I boot.
I'm in a live CD and I have access to a console, how can I reconfigure GRUB?
Thanks!
