Dual boot system, Win XP and Ubuntu 11 with Grub, working fine.
Update from 11.10 to 12.04 runs smooth, at end I reboot.
At boot, Grub menu won't appear, I get:
error: out of partition
grub rescue>
Tried the boot-repair disk.
I've bought new laptop Sony Vaio E14P series. It has pre-installed Windows 8, and I want to dual boot it with Ubuntu 12.10 64bit. I have diabled secure boot and install Ubuntu without any problem from live USB.
When I reboot after installation, it directly boot to windows 8, dont load GRUB at all. So I went to live USB again to boot-repair.
Earlier today i installed ubuntu 12.10 beta. Grub wasn't booting, but just going directly to my primary OS Windows 7. I assumed i had partitioned incorrectly, because partitioning isnt my strong suit. I used boot repair because it was well recomanded off a live usb. Afterwards, grub appeared, but i only had options for Ubuntu, Advanced Ubuntu Option, and my hidden windows 7 recovery partition.
Hello everyone,
I have a small problem with booting to Ubuntu after my resizing and moving the partitions recently.
So I have 2 systems : Windows 7 64 bit
Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit
This is my boot script pastehttp://paste.ubuntu.com/1158702/
After changing some stuff with partitions my system now boots only to Windows without showing grub menu.
Yesterday I installed ubuntu 12.04.1.
Note : its a dual boot system along windows 7
At first grub was appearing and i was able to start ubuntu but then i had to switch to windows but windows was not booting when i select windows 7 it jumps back to grub window. So i fix the Windows Boot Loader using repair from windows media and wolla windows started to boot but Ubuntu Grub gone.
So, I don't know what exactly how I managed to delete the MBR record on windows partition. But let me explain what I did next, I ran the ubuntu boot repair tool and now Windows is not even listed in my grub loader.
So I went and booted with windows cd and choose repair. Then I ran ubuntu boot repair again via live cd. Here is the log http://paste.ubuntu.com/1426181/. Still no luck.
I recently installed Windows 8 onto a partition that had previously housed XP, and burned a 64-bit version of secure remix and ran boot-repair. I can now see and boot into my Ubuntu desktop, but the Windows 8 installation does not even appear on the grub menu.

I installed Ubuntu 12.04 in my computer without problems, but after rebooting i got the following error:
Error: No such partition
grub rescue>
I am a novice with ubuntu and any detailed instructions to the problem will be highly appreciated.
I ran boot repair as per the following:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yannubuntu/boot-repair
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y boot-repair
boo
