boot-repair on Ubuntu 12.10 (installed inside windows XP) failed

[Rahul_Raj]

I attempted a boot-repair on Ubuntu 12.10 (installed inside Windows XP). Although, the boot-repair completed successfully, the reboot was unsuccessful.
The pastebin link is:
paste.ubuntu.com/25060820

Thanks in advance.

Your posted link is broken. Both Ubuntu 12.10 and xp are very outdated and unsupported. You do know that the wubi installer simply installs Ubuntu inside windows as a program and that it uses the windows bootloader to boot. I don't think boot repair is going to fix that but maybe someone more familiar will have a suggestion.

Wubi is also unsupported. Wouldn't go there. You won't get much help with it.

As those above have already said Ubuntu 12.10, wubi and Windows XP are all well beyond end-of-life and there is nothing anyone here in the forum can do to help you to recover that situation; certainly the boot repair pastebin you show is no help at all when dealing with wubi installs.

If you have files inside that wubi install that you need the best I can suggest is to recover them by mounting the root.disk file in the XP partition in a "real" Ubuntu hard disk installation or possibly in a live Ubuntu OS.
See https://askubuntu.com/questions/2436...tall-of-ubuntu for information which may help.

Query relates to end-of-life operating systems and installation mode.
If you need more help on recovery of files please start another thread with descriptive title.
