Don't worry. There is a simply soltion to solve this "error"message.
Subject the system ist bootable and you can have acces to your ubuntu, just do the following : In Ubuntu open a terminal window. become either root by typing su + root password or type sudo dosfsck -r /dev/hda1 Once you try to run fsck in recovery mode, nothing will happen, whatever option you choose. Obviously dosfsck will be invoked by fsck and when the options choices appear on the screen dosfsck is already terminated. And fsck has no glue how to handle the typed in figures ( 1, 2 oder 3 (no action). On the first run of dosfsck the same errormessage will appear and it offers the 3 options (copy backup to original, origianl to backup, no action) Choose "copy original to backup" and - after an while - confirm the "perform changes" with y for yes. Thats it. For a test you may feel free to run fsck or dosfsck again. The message "there are differeces bettween boot sector and his backup"has gone, as well as the also printed offsets and difference bytes. Reboot and the message has been dessappeared to. I had the same little problem under Feisty and solved it that way. -- Grub not replacing boot sector backup when installing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/47382 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
