I thought I'd update this for future reference for anybody else who may have this problem in future: - waverider's help/advice is quite helpful as above, also I came across this article at the link below which I found to be one of the more detailed and clear in terms of restoring GRUB: http://gwos.org/udsf/doku.php/core:grub:restore -- karmic - mountall fails to mount filesystem on boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/447747 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
