I upgraded from 9.04 to 11.04 and have a Windows Vista Boot already installed. When I start my PC, I get a black screen that says:
GNU GRUB version 1.99~rc1-13ubuntu3
Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first word, TAB lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists possible device or file completions.
grub>
When I type "root (hd0,5)", my Linux partition, I get "error: unknown command 'root'."
I tried to run Boot-Repair on the system to correct the boot, however, I got an error message: "System program problem detected."
HELP!
Overview of current system is the following:
