Ubuntu 10.10: Installation ok, but "Operating System not found" at boot

[balanza]

Hi,

I'm trying to install ubuntu from scratch on my laptop, a TravelMate 4060 with 1.7ghz Intel centrino, 1gb ram, 40gb hard drive. I run the installer from cd and everithing seems fine except for this error(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bug/539027), but i red it's not a blocking issue.
But, once i restart and so i reboot, the only i have is a black-scrin with my mac address and some error like:


PXE-E53: no boot filename received

PXE-M0F: exiting PXE ROM
Operating system not found


any idea? i'm really in a trouble, i can't get my laptop to work!

PS: isn't pxe the network boot? why am i using it?

PPS: I had to reinstall from scratch 'cause my previous instance crashed after a loss of power (it couldn't boot anymore). It was a Kubuntu 10.4 and it worked fine. Do you think anyting could be broken on my harware (i think ram or rom)?

thanks

Welcome to UF :-)
Is your bios set to boot from a network first?

Welcome to forums :-)

Either your Bios is not set to boot from HDD or it can't find a bootloader in MBR or HDD is not even being recongized as Quackers mentioned above.

If tweaking Bios settings doesn't help, bootinfoscript output will tell us exactly about your problem.

Boot an Ubuntu Live CD/USB and post the output of boot script as per instructions here.

And please wrap your output with proper code tags # from post menu. [/code] at the end and [code] at beginning.
