Reefa: could you attach the output from: dd if=/dev/hda bs=2550 count=10 seek=8225280 | gzip > reefa-2550-8225280.img.gz aswell please. In 'gparted', 'hda1' and 'hda4' would be on the same level as they are primary partitions; 'hda5' and above will probably be indented as they are secondary partitions. -- After install: "/bin/sh: Can't access tty; Job control turned off" https://launchpad.net/bugs/86345 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Reefa's partitioning scheme is: {WinXP, Ubuntu root, 128GB big NTFS, Ubuntu swap} Assuming that this is a case of grub getting the wrong 'root=', then following the chain back we get: 20:05 cjwatson: which part of ubiquity selects the partitions to be passed to grub post-install? 20:06 (causes 'root=' to be filled out in menu.lst) 20:07 sladen: that's done by update-grub in the grub package 20:07 sladen: ... which fishes it out of /etc/fstab for itself Taking a while to diagnose as grub was wipe with 'fixmbr' as the grub setup had also broken booting MS Windows (which is most likely *extremely* related...). -- After install: "/bin/sh: Can't access tty; Job control turned off" https://launchpad.net/bugs/86345 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
