Make sure you have upstart package on your system to init the new kernels. You can use a livecd and chroot your filesystem if you are not able to currently do anything. <<
I can confirm this. I had the same error and my menu.lst was set up fine. It was caused by an apt-get autoremove. Mounting a Ubuntu-livcd, doing chroot, and doing an apt-get install ubuntu-minimal solved the problem (apt-get install upstart was not enough!) -- Kernel 2.6.17-7-generic fails to boot, I get the BusyBox instead https://launchpad.net/bugs/59792 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
