As for the lines that scroll by, it never stops so I can't review them sorry. I've had it scrolling for over half an hour now.
The parts that don't change are as follows:
[ 0.060003] [<c1.......>] ? then it all changes so fast I can't make it out.
I can't get it to boot in any mode or any version of the kernel sorry so I can't run the apt-get command.
LOL
Okay... What I meant was the grubmenu entries instead of the menu tiles. An easier way for you might be to post your /boot/grub/grub.cfg file such as this:
HTML Code:

# from /etc/grub.d and settings from /etc/default/grub

I'd ask you to run the script in my sig and post the results, but you aren't going to be able to without booting up a kernel. Becuase of that, "tell me" how you have things laid out disk and partition wise...
