Public bug reported:

I cannot give version information -- due to the fact that Ubuntu will not boot 
at all. So this is all from memory...
I am running the current 9.10 version, and perform system updates regularly.
This evening, I ran an update which included a new Ubuntu Linux kernel. After 
the update, a dialog box appeared which called for a system restart.  After 
closing all open programs (Solitare) I clicked the 'restart' button. The OS 
shut down normally.

Now when I try to boot Ubuntu, I get only a grub prompt with no kernel
loaded.

This is a Dell laptop dual boot setup with Ubuntu loop-installed on the NTFS 
volume hosted by Windows Vista.
Grub is set so that Vista is the default.  Vista still boots normally after the 
menu wait. The Grub menu never appears when Ubuntu is selected.

How do I get Ubuntu back?
