I have a new Toshiba Satellite. Windows 7 is already installed; I shrunk the panel and began an Ubuntu 11.04 (64 bit) installation (such as a dual boot) from the LiveCD. It was from side to side most of the installation, but the computer from hibernation before terminating. I rebooted and ran GParted, eliminating the ext4 partition and rerun the installation of ubuntu. It forced me to reboot, and now the LiveCD freezes on the Ubuntu logo (with growth bar 4 points). Pressing Alt + F4 at boot I get this after a minute or two.
Code:
[122.472619] SP5100 TC0 timer: mnio address 0xb8fe00 already in use
Taking the LiveCD out and booting, I get a "grub rescue>" prompt:
Code:
Booting from local disk...
error: unknown filesystem.
grub rescue> help
Unknown command `help'
grub rescue> ls
(hd0) (hd0,msdos7) (hd0,msdos6) (hd0,msdos5) (hd0,msdos3) (hd0,msdos2) (hd0,msdos1)
grub rescue> ls (hd0)
error: unknown filesystem.
grub rescue> ls (hd0,msdos7)
error: unknown filesystem.
grub rescue> ls (hd1)
error: hd1 cannot get C/H/S values.
grub rescue> ls (test)
error: no such disk.
I like to know if anyone has any suggestions for how to proceed before I start rooting around there.
