This was a dual-boot Windows XP 7 Xubuntu workstation & recently while
in the XP partition I was viewing the drives & when I clicked on the
Linux partition it disappeared. I was looking to see how much space I
could get back for the Windows partition when this happened.
This happened once before on another machine, but it wasn't a huge deal
as I just re-imaged it.
Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to look at it deeper & while doing a
renovation the power got turned off & the machine shut down.
When it boots up now it shows a grub Rescue prompt & when I do an ls I
get the following:
(hd0) (hd0,msdos5) (hd0,msdos1) (fd0)
I have been looking online & all I have found so far is how to get it
back into Ubuntu. But as Ubuntu doesn't exist anymore this doesn't help
me. I haven't applied any commands as I don't want to mess it up.
Right now my goal is to recover the Windows XP Partition which houses my
Quicken software. I do have the Quicken files on a DropBox share &
hopefully they were synched at the time, but I won't know unless I get
back in there.
Any ideas?
