I had been running Ubuntu Netbook Remix on my netbook for about a year now, and finally decided to upgrade to natty from maverick after it reminded me for the 100000th time. It came with windows 7 installed, and I have been booting with GRUB to choose ubuntu.
After the upgrade, the only thing that appears is the GRUB rescue prompt, with the error
symbol not found: 'grub_env_export' appearing.
I have gone through the forums and attempted some of the suggestions. Unfortunately, the only commands that work in the rescue prompt are set and ls. I was able to see through ls that in (hd0,5), I can find the vmlinuz, initrd.img, and /boot/grub/grub.cfg etc. as suggested in
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#GRUB_2_Troubleshooting_Preparation
I had my USB from my original install and attempted to boot from it, but even in this situation the grub rescue prompt comes up as above. Created a 11.04 USB to boot from and it did the same thing.
So essentially right now, I cannot seem to boot anything.
I can't seem to find a solution in another thread here or elsewhere. Any help would certainly be appreciated.
