grub_puts error after 9.10 -> 10.04 upgrade

[pimseb]

Hello,

I've updated my laptop from Karmic to Lucid. I've downloaded the iso and "burned" it on my USB stick using unetbootin.
I've installed Lucid Lynx but after rebooting I get the grub-puts error.
So I've followed this : http://www.webupd8.org/2010/05/fix-s...ound-when.html
The problem is that the grub seems to be on my usb drive. I can see the grub when the usb drive is inserted in my laptop (and boot on lynx or windows).
But when I remove the usb stick, I still see this annoying grub_puts errror.
What can I do ?
I think there is a problem with my sda and sdb. But I dont see a device.map in /boot/grub

I got the dreaded grub_puts error after upgrading a dual boot (XP Jaunty) system. I tried this one:

http://www.webupd8.org/2010/05/fix-s...ound-when.html

It seems to work for many people on this thread, but I got an error message after the last command. And was then right back at the grub_puts error message.

I found the following Ubuntu documentation much more helpful. You need a LIVE CD to do it. Mine was a Jaunty LIVE CD, but it still worked fine even though I had upgraded to Lucid.
