hey
During update my pc locked up and i shut it down. power button :( now ubuntu wont start up, it runs straight to busybox, windows starts and runs normaly.

i have tried to do some simple fix with a live cd (ubuntu 10.10, the instaled verison is 10.04) but everything stops after a while in the terminal. have tried to install grub + update and upgrad with terminal live cd. have also tried to run the http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/ but stops when it comes to the partiotn thats ubuntu is on (sda5)disk

have also tried to install 10.10 from the cd, just starts to loading after chosen install...nothing happens.

anything i can do in busybox ? must i format the whole disk, including windows ?
