So I installed Ubuntu 11.10 on a previously made ext4 partition that I was dual-booting with Linux Mint. Install went OK, but now PC will not boot to anything! Cannot get past the Grub screen, just get 'no such device.... Entering rescue mode'
But then is just hangs there with blinking cursor.
What can I do now? I tried booting off my Windows installation CD in RE mode, and tried startup repair, but it does not detect any problems.
What can I do to fix this?
Thanks for any help.
OK. Found a link to a program called Boot Repair. Downloaded the ISO image and burned it to a disk. Booted off of it, used the 'repair' option, and I am good to go.
I would highly recommend this program!
