I have been struggling for a week with various installation techniques without complete success. Internet searches have provided part of the answer but not a complete solution. :(
I have an IBM xSeries eServer with windows installed on the primary IDE drive C (sda1).
I have 5 SCSI drives associated with windows E: F: G: H: I:
I have installed UBUNTU 11.04 on SCSI drive sdb (J) with two partitions sdb1(/) and sdb2 (swap)
Grub boot loader is installed on sda1 (c)
When I boot I get a good boot menu giving the choice of windows XP, Ubuntu and various ubuntu options.
Selecting Windows results in a good boot of windows XP.
Selecting Ubuntu results in a blank screen for 60 + seconds and than the BusyBox shell appears.
If I type EXIT at the busybox prompt a good boot of Ubuntu results.
Can anyone offer suggestions how to rid myself of the BusyBox prompt?
Below are the results given by Boot_Info_script.sh
