Okay. Understand about the Code of Conduct. Sorry for my crassness and blunt anger. I just believe that 10.4 was release w/such an obvious serious bug. Some other people have had the same problem from my googling it.
Have been using Ubuntu for several years. I initially upgraded to 10.4 from w/in Ubuntu 9.04 via the notification of a new version, "would you like to upgrade" option. It installed and ran fine for only one (1) session. Then after that I imediately had the "no root disk found, dropping to a shell" error msg.. every time I would try to boot up. So, I uninstalled Ubuntu from Windows 7 Home Premium (64Bit) via the Uninstall App Option w/in the Control Panel of Windows 7. Then I download from Wubi 10.4 and installed it again. It installed at least initially w/no problems and it boot up. Then it got some updates. Then it started to NOT BOOT UP due to the same ole' "No root disk found, dropping to a shell" error msg. I am using a 64 Bit dual Core AmD PC w/a on a SATA 3.0 H/D w/4GB of SDRAM. The PC is only a year old.
