Ok, so I am running Lubuntu 12.04 Beta 2 and when I shut it down the other everything was working great. When I turned it on the next day it booted up just fine and connected to the home wireless...

Yeah, I followed a how to tutorial, that was still a little beyond my own scope right now, lol. I'm getting it to boot up now, in 5-15 minutes.

After I updated the grub with the how to, the grub...

So I did a fresh install and it worked great, until I tried to put it into full-screen. The same place it disappeared last time.

I am on Ubuntu 11.10 What OS are you running anewguy??

Did you, by chance, reconnect the hard disk and then try to boot?

No, the laptop has no HDD, looked for one for it in Okinawa, Japan in 2007 but the ones on the market are to new to fit the...

I uninstalled it using the software center and then tried oldo2r recommendation

I reinstalled grub off of the live CD on computer B when I was actually able to get it to load. Now the grub looks good when I turn it on, but it is stuck at:

ata_id[187]: HDIO_GET_IDENTITY failed...

I let it sit for a few hours before rebooting it

It ran great for a while when I first installed it, then it crashed and is nada now. Looks like I will have to hope Hulu will update the Ubuntu .deb package.

It returned errors trying to post the return in the terminal so I attached a .jpeg

:

I have re-installed the grub running live CD on the Acer that this will be on, it has no internal Hard Drive. It now sits at

ata_id[198]: HDIO_GET_IDENTITY failed for '/dev/sda': Invalid Argument

Bump

No, I was able to get into a maintenance terminal as it progressed, but that was the only command prompt I could get to.

But one of the Pro Linux Anti Microsoft users realizes Bing is from Microsoft and crashes Bing to get people back on Google.....

Ok, I did the grub repair and when I booted up the Acer everything looked good in the Grub. but I know get a new ata_id error - 185

Anewguy - yes you summed it up perfectly. Any ideas on what to...

There is NO internal hard drive, if i did this will it take the Lubuntu 12.04 back to fresh install where it re-installs all drivers?

Yes and Yes, this is the ata argument I got:

ata_id[199]: HDIO_GET_IDENTITY failed for '/dev/sda': Invalid argument

It did boot up twice for me when I first installed it but then locked up...

Yes, it shows other OS and items that are not present - I had to do the install on my Compaq, because the acer does not have enough memory to do the install on it, but will run the OS well, upon...

bump

I did the installation on this laptop, because the Acer only has 256MB of RAM, so installation would not complete on it, although it will run the OS well. Only problem is it comes up with everything...

12.04, so that would mean it's grub 2. How do I edit the grub inside of the USB HDD to reflect that only it is present and to boot off of sda1? I can't find anything understandable through google.
...

My OS is on a USB HDD on a computer without a Hard Drive. I made the install on my good laptop which is also dual booted with Ubuntu and Windows. So the grub lists a much different order. I wanted to...

I got it to load up a maintenance shell. did:

fdisk -l but it told me that was a bad idea, because it was mounted and **WILL** cause **SEVERE** damage.

so I did startx and now I just have a...

I chose update grub loader and got this screen, almost instantly. The grub is set off of sda, but the OS is on sda1. I typed startx and it did nothing. What do you recommend I do, just continue to...
