hi all,
I installes the current ubuntu with an alternate install cd.
the installation went fine.
no errors or warnings what so ever.
when i tried to boot, grub shows up and i select the standard boot item.
all i get is a blinking cursor on the top left of my screen.
nothing happens then.
failsafe boot works. but thats not how it should be.
maybe it has sth to do with my disk setup?
i have 1 hdd in my laptop with the following partitions:
1. win7 boot partition
2. win7 partition
3. ext2 /boot
4. extended
4.1 crypto disk
4.1.1 lvm partition
4.1.1.1 swap
4.1.1.2 ext4 /
4.2 data partition ntfs
I also tried reinstallaing this way... didnt help.
but this kind of disk layout has already worked when i used ubuntu 1 year ago.
anyone got an idea?
thasnks & greets,
soomon
