Been using mythtv for couple years now. Moved to 11.10 a few months ago.
Last few weeks the ubuntu system monitor was showing normal stats, except system load averages appeared high (between 1.5 and 3.5). A few days ago, I went through update manager and updated the 100+ updates. I am now unable to boot my PC. System boots to the GRUB screen (which I normally don't see).
When booting OS via CD I am able to see all my partitions on both drives. I tried to run "Boot-Repair" but get errors (need to run a 64bit version, or ??).
Is my hard drive toast? Or did my OS update crash my boot drive?
System: HTPC

From my Boot-Repair log, here is my system information:
