I got the same error with the latest kernel update:from 2.6.31-14 to 2.6.31-15
When booting it ended up in the minimal grub shell. HOWEVER, I could recover to a certain extent: Noticed that there was already a (loop0) device listed, thus the grub could create the loop device from the root.disk (one can check: if "ls /" gives linux-type of directory structure, it should be already in the loop device) Then issued the following commands to get into linux: linux vmlinuz-2.6.31-14-generic root=/dev/sda6 loop=/ubuntu/disks/root.disk ro initrd initrd.img-2.6.31-14-generic boot Note!: 1) I had to do the old version (-14), the new version (-15) sent it into reboot immediately after issuing "boot"! 2) the root=/dev/sda6 is on my computer for others' machines it will be different After that, being in Ubuntu, i think i issued a "sudu grub-update". At the next update the grub screen was back, -15 still rebooting, but -14 works fine for the moment.... What's in the kernel update that it brakes like this? -- After 9.10 grub update can not boot into Wubi install https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/477104 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
