Ok, I googled it (it's a file explorer for windows to see ext2,3,4 partitions) and the question is what I do with it as I don't know any of the Ubuntu extensions and what might need repairing to get it to boot again.

But note that running another operating system is way more risky than installing a little tool like ext2read, if you're concerned about your wife's computer.

"root.disk does not exist" recovery mode for ...-25 is the same error, but scrolling down to 2.6.35-22 (or editing it back to ...-22) works fine. How do I fix it or change it to default to -22 until a fix is found? The editing changes are not saved if I do it from the boot options. I'm very new to Ubuntu/Linux, but MCSE for Windows. I looked all over the web, user groups, did not find a solution. I want to let others use this system and another, but have to explain how to get it to boot for them.
