Yesterday I upgraded my 10.10 x64 to the beta of 11.04 x64 using update- manager.
Upon reboot got error in grub about missing xputs and dropped into grub- recovery. I have followed the instructions here about reinstalling grub: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1581099 Upon reinstalling grub the error about flexnet appears and when you reboot you are dumped back into grub-recovery. I cannot boot into Ubuntu as when I followed the instructions in the above thread typing 'insmod linux' resulted in an error about not being able to find memset. To get back into windows I ended up purging grub via chroot through a live cd, and then installing lilo and recovering my windows MBR (see page two of the thread linked). My next option would be to trash the sector that flexnet was on but as I use Adobe CS3 products under windows I am reluctant to do this. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/730225 Title: grub-install trashes the ntfs partition that starts at sector 63 if one or more sectors in the embedding area is occupied by Adobe FlexNet -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
