Hi, I'm hoping someone can assist with this issue:
- I have a HP 6550b laptop with Win 7 - Just installed Ubuntu 11.10 alongside Win 7 - On reboot I get a list of errors: Out of partition / No suitable mode found / No video mode activated / Invalid Extent - When GRUB menu loads, I can not load either Win or Linux OS. I get: No such partition / Unkonwn filesystem - When dropping to GRUB prompt, I try 'help' and get similar errors - After asking around in #ubuntu I am attempting to reinstal GRUB - For about 45 minutes, the Boot Repair has been sitting at: 'Reinstall GRUB sda. This may require several minutes...' Any ideas? Should it really take that long? Or is it hung? What else can I try? Incidentally, when I could see the GRUB menu (that Ubuntu 11.10 install had introduced), it said it was GRUB V1.99-12ubuntu5. Does that sound right? I thought it should be GRUB 2? Phew... Hoping someone can help, otherwise Christmas is looking pretty grim! Thanks, Kim
