I'm dual booting W7 and Ubuntu (installed from Wubi). I've had it up and running a few times but today ,i have pressed power button multiple times while booting up and I'm getting a message from Windows Boot Manager when I select Ubuntu that wubildr.mbr is missing or corrupt. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I installed ubuntu 12.04 LTS inside windows 7 using wubi, but in the operation system selection menu when i try ubuntu it displays:

Try (hd0,0): NTFS: No wubildr (even though it does exist in C:\wubildr)

Try (hd0,1): NTFS: (here it hangs, it cannot load grub)

When i choose windows in selection menu it boots normaly.

I realy do not understand what is the problem!!!

Hi,

My laptop had winxp that was dual booting with ubuntu 12.10.

Installed win 8 Pro successfully, now win xp can't load. That's OK as I plan to junk it.

I still want ubuntu but it won;t load either. the wubildr.mbr in c:/ is there.

Have a C drive spilt into 3 parts: C/D/E. Ubuntu is on E.

The "ubuntu-gnome-12.10-desktop-i386" iso installer file is on E.

Not to sound like a total newb with Ubuntu, but i went thru the installation process. Everything worked fine until i robooted and selected to run Ubuntu. An error msgs pops up instantly saying "try hd 0,0 no wubild, try hd 0,1 NTFS5: 2 try hd 0,2 no wubild found. It also says cannot find grldr in all drives.

Hi. I've been trying to install Ubuntu via Wubi on my new Asus K55V laptop. The installation appears to complete fine without errors, but when I then reboot I get this boot screen error:

The arcane language here is Danish. The "status" code is "0xc0000098".

I am having problems getting grub to load Windows 8 properly after installing Ubuntu 12.10 and Windows 8 on a solid state drive.

[ubuntu] Re-installation Help 12 weeks 3 days ago

I would like to start off by saying that I am new to Ubuntu and forums as well. Lets get on with the problem now. I am on my old desktop, possibly about 7-8 years. It has 2 hard drives on it. 1 hard drive has Windows XP Professional installed on it and the 2nd hard drive is empty.
