Is this when booting directly from the install CD? What happens when you hit CONTROL+D? Does it loop back to:


root@ubuntu:

From your post I am a bit unclear as to whether you have actually managed to install Ubuntu and this is what you get when you boot or this is what you get when you boot from the install CD ...

when i press control D system gets restart and again it start booting for ubuntu 12.04 and

"General error mounting filesystems.
A maintenance shell will now be started.
CONTROL-D will terminate this shell and reboot the system
root@(ubuntu):"
