Hi guys! just wanted to mention that I had the same issues with hardy heron (8.04) on my dual boot system. I had previously installed 7.10 without a hitch on my computer, and I was able to start ubuntu and windows xp without any fuss with grub. When 8.04 came out(final release), I decided to reformat the 7.10 partition and install fresh...then came the issues mentionned above.
1) installed from the live 8.04 cd - for ix86 2) from the partition editor, chose manual install and chose my old 7.10 partition to be reformated and reisntalled as / (root) 3) left the grub re-install on mbr\ 4) at reboot, error 22 shows up? can't boot from windows either "cannot execute" to fix this, I had to manually edit the grub at startup by changing the values (hd0,0) or (hd0,1) or (hd0,2 ) etc to finally be able to find the one that made linux boot up. Once I found it, had to go in the /boot/menu.lst to change it to the right values. I also noticed that in that same list, some mappers were present for the windows xp entry. I removed them and gave it its normal (hd0,0). after this, all worked fine but wasted a full day at it. Never happened with 7.10, which automatically figured out the right boot option for both windows and ubuntu. Thought this could help someone. -- Kubuntu 8.04 Grub Error 22 or no partitions found when booting https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/222115 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
