I have taken the following steps-
Step1: I add [QUOTE]title Ubuntu 9.04 kernel 2.6.28-19-generic root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.28-19-generic root=/dev/sda1 initrd /initrd.img-2.6.28-19-generic ---------[/QUOTE] Step2: [QUOTE]title Ubuntu 9.04, kernel 2.6.28-19-generic uuid e9918b34-80aa-4214-bd63-6b46b339005c kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.28-19-generic root=UUID=e9918b34-80aa-4214-bd63-6b46b339005c ro quiet splash initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.28-19-generic quiet[/QUOTE] Both time after restarting the computer and selecting ubuntu in GRUB list gives me this error message " Error 15: File not found Press any key to continue..." Step3: Then I edited the grub.conf file again and add [QUOTE]title Ubuntu 9.04, (kernel 2.6.28-19-generic) root (hd0,0) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.28-19-generic root=UUID=e9918b34-80aa-4214-bd63-6b46b339005c ro quiet splash initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.28-19-generic quiet[/QUOTE] And then there is no problem in logging into my ubuntu system. > > > -- > users mailing list > users@lists.fedoraproject.org > To unsubscribe or change subscription options: > https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users > Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines >
