Hello - I am a complete newbie.
I have tried to install various versions of ubuntu on my old Dell D600 laptop. I intended it to be solely ubuntu and begin to learn about this OS and apps etc..
After installing ubuntu 14.04 - and failing due to the 'pae' issue...I started trying alternatives xubuntu - lubuntu and versions going back...back until I reached ubuntu 12.04
I booted ubuntu 12.04 from CD, used the 'forcepae' command line parameter at the appropriate place and eventually the system actually installed.
Upon re-booting I got
error: out of disk
grub rescue
I then re-booted on the CD - used the "try Ubuntu" option - ran a terminal window - ran the boot-repair commands as recommended on this forum - and got the following URL
http://paste.ubuntu.com/9997801/
Would someone please advise me what I do now?
Many thanks :-)
