I have a Dell Mini 10, and have the same problem. However, I have been able to log into Ubuntu, using the following workaround (and have confirmed that grub is the issue here):
1. Created a new USB boot drive, with Ultimate Boot CD on it and booted into it. (Used the multiboot ISO program from PenDriveLinux to create it) 2. Select HDD -> Boot Management -> Super Grub2 Disk V1.30 (Runs Grub 1.97.2) 3. Selected Boot Ubuntu Gnu/Linux This got me to a log in screen. Because I have a Poulsbo video chip, I had to go into the desktop edition, not the netbook edition Tried from a command prompt to do sudo grub-install /dev/sda, but that didn't do anything. Did an apt-get update. The extras.ubuntu.com one failed. Don't know if that is relevant Did an apt-get upgrade. Rebooted. Grub still not working. Did an apt-get remove grub-pc. Ubuntu said grub2 not installed Did an apt-get install grub-pc grub2. Rebooted. Still no luck. Said it installed Grub 1.98 Did another apt-get remove grub-pc grub2 Did an apt-get install grub. Ran sudo grub-install /dev/sda Rebooted. Got to a prompt, but no menu. Too tired now to figure out why. Hope this helps. -Andrew -- Dell inspiron mini 1010 (Atom Z530 1Gb RAM) won't boot after installing Ubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/641161 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
