First off I want to thank everyone that reading this for your time.
I have 2 hard drives
1 400gb - I use this one for storeage
1 60GB This is the drive I am trying to install Ubuntu on.
The 60GB drive was partitioned with 3 different partitions, one of those was windows which all where about under 20 gigs.
I decided to install Ubuntu on the 60GB and used the guided install option in the setup.
Installation was successful but after the computer restarted it's not stating DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER.
I have tried the following options to try to correct this problem...
I reinstalled it in manual mode and only saw the the following a swap and a ext3 partitions.
I then deleted the main 60GB drive and installed the following
/ 10 GB
/home 10GB
/boot 100MB
/swap 2GB
After it installed it still gave the same boot message.
I hate to say I'm a newbie to this but I am. I'm a quick leaner but I'm stuck on this one. Maybe needs some sort of MBR correction?
If any can help I would be great, I'll like to have my computer up and running today.
Any help is appriciated.
