Subject: Grub error while installing Ubuntu 9.04
Hi Gowtham
My name is Ananyo and I talked to you on the phone about the error I have face while installing Ubuntu 9.04 in my laptop.
I had Ubuntu 8.04 which was not working properly and so I started my other OS which is a Windows Vista and deleted the other partitions that had Ubuntu. Then when I started my computer from hard drive, it showed an error called
GRUB Loading 1.5, Please wait
Error 22
I thought that installing a new Ubuntu will solve the problem and I started installing Ubuntu 9.04 from a CD and the installation was proceeding fine but it stopped at 75% with an error and Ubuntu loaded from the CD. I could access internet and other files. Then I restarted my laptop and the same problem is existing when I am trying to boot from the hard drive.
Right now I am running Ubuntu from CD only and not able to start my Windows but I am able to access my Windows files from Ubuntu and thus I know that my Windows is still ok.
I dont know how to solve the grub menu problem. I have tried a lot from different Linux forums, but nothing is working.
Please help.
Thanks and regards
Ananyo
