    Re: Computer won't boot

    I'm posting from my all fixed ubuntu system.
    Great.

    But I'm a little bit confused. Just running "" sudo ./wipefs /dev/sda5" should not have fixed anything. Did you do anything else? Maybe creating the file on /dev/sda5 fixed the problem (sometimes it takes a couple of seconds for the file system to update, so if you ran "blkid write after you created the file, it might have been to early to detect a change)

    Re: Computer won't boot

    Your problem was fixed by creating the file. I just found this:

    Code:
    # Minix filesystems - Juan Cespedes 
    0x410	leshort		0x137f		Minix filesystem
    0x410	leshort		0x138f		Minix filesystem, 30 char names
    0x410	leshort		0x2468		Minix filesystem, version 2
    0x410	leshort		0x2478		Minix filesystem, version 2, 30 char nam
    Which matches your output:

    Code:
    00000410  8f 13                                             |..|
    00000412
    So you have been affected by this bug:

    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/518582

    Would you mind following the link and then click on

    "This bug affects x people" Does this bug affect you" ( or "This bug affects you)

    to let launchpad know that you have been affected by the bug.
    You might also leave a comment. Thanks.
