Do you see what's wrong? It's being told to look in (msdos5)=sda5 for boot files, and sda5 is the swap partition!, can't happen. That has to be fixed, it should be msdos6 = sda6 which is where the boot files and system are located. But the reinstall will fix (it better) that. Wanted you to see it first.
