    Re: upgraded my motherboard and now wubi is dead

    right i'm stuck on this bit (bold):

    sudo mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev
    sudo mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc
    sudo mount --bind /sys /mnt/sys
    sudo cp /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/etc/resolv.conf
    sudo chroot /mnt /bin/bash
    and i'm getting this error:

    $ sudo chroot /vdisk /bin/bash
    chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': Exec format error
    please note that my install is mounted as /vdisk and not /mnt from the "mount wubi drive guide"
