Hey guys,
So I have the following setup:
- C:/ Windows 8.1
- D:/ HDD Hard Drive I used on Windows 8.1
- E:/ Ubuntu 14.04
So I wanted to format my Ubuntu hard drive so that I could use it on my Windows setup for more space.
I used the following guide:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/342857/how-to-wipe-format-entire-disk-using-gparted
(Answer that was posted by Galgalesh (http://askubuntu.com/users/172367/galgalesh))
After I did the guide on my E:/ Drive and rebooted. I am not booting into "grub rescue".
So I then used this guide:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair
The Boot-Repair did not work.
Here is my output for the repair:
paste2.org/6kdWLbY6
In grub rescue terminal, none of my filesystems displayed by using "ls" work when applying "ls (hd0,msdos2)/boot" or any of the other filesystems listed by "ls" command. For all of the systems I get the error: "error: unknown fileystem."
I just want access to my C:/ Windows 8.1 back, with my E:/ wiped and ready for use on my Windows 8.1 system.
Please help.
Thanks in advance.

Still don't have access to my Ubuntu formatted hard drive on Windows though.
