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.
Ok, so I'm having this problem. I have also seen something called Boot Repair
Any help?
Yesterday, after having resized and moved some of my partitions I have successfully enlarged my Ubuntu partition but in the morning I wanted to launch the computer and ... one thing I get is the "blinking beacon".
I have tried booting into Ubuntu 12.04 USB and it worked, the disk is working - I can access it's files but I cannot boot into it.
Following a fresh install of 12.04 on a dual HDD dual boot system first boot brought up Grub Rescue.
I installed Boot Repair in a live CD and ran the recommended repair. Boot Repair indicated a successful repair.
Upon reboot there is no entry for Win XP.
Gparted shows sda as full as it was before installing 12.04.
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
Hello,
I've just tried upgrading Ubuntu from 12.04 to 12.10, when the system restarted the "grub rescue" prompt was displayed. I've tried booting into ubuntu through a live usb, installed boot repair and run it, but I am getting the following

I am currently trying to get my grub back. I have tried everything from reinstalling, to boot-repair, and even super boot manager. Nothing seems to work.
I have created a log with boot-repair:

Any ideas?
Thanks!
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.
I am using a Wubi installation installed through Windows 7. I have lots of problem with grub and nothing is working. I have important files in the partition. I can boot through a live CD if necessary.
Here's the pastebin link to boot-repair.
