Solve : Ubuntu 9.10 can´t access to the system? |
|
Answer» I have installed Ubuntu 9.10 and when I SHUT down the PC and turn it on, the Ubuntu 9.10 can't access to the system. Ubuntu 9.10 can't access to the system. Can you be a bit more specific, do mean Unbuntu won't start up at all or Unbuntu can't access the HDD?I mean Ubuntu won't start up at all. Does the hard drive show up in BIOS?The hard drive show up in Bios. I know a trick to access to the system. If the system is off, I turn it on and then I have to press the Esc KEY several times to access to the system. If I don't do it, the Ubuntu 9.10 can't access to the system. You must be more specific about what is happening. Where are you getting this "Ubuntu can't access the system"? Are you receiving a grub error? Are you even reaching grub? Do you have multiple hard drives? and if so, by pressing escape, is that bringing up a boot menu to select which hard drive to boot from? Otherwise, what is pressing escape accomplishing? Also, verify that you installed grub to the mbr.I am not getting this message: "Ubuntu can't access the system" It's my expression about the issue. The pc is off and then I turn it on: The screen shows me the Ubuntu logo and after that is going to be in black screen and don't do ELSE more. The pc is blocked. The pc is off and then I turn it on and I have to press the Esc key several times and I get the Gnu Grub version 1.97~beta4 screen and I choose: Ubuntu , Linux 2.6.31-16-generic. I am no receiving a grub error. I reach the grub if I press Esc key several times when I turn on the pc. I have one HDD. How do i verify if I installed grub to the mbr ? Thanks for helping. I've been slackin and don't have any experience with grub2 yet, but if you could post the contents of /boot/grub/grub.cfg, we might find some insight there.ok.

Do both kernels boot fine from the grub menu? Also, can you show the contents of /boot/grub/grubenv and /boot/default/grub?How do i use code tags for presenting files ? I dont understand this: Do both kernels boot fine from the grub menu? Ok. I am going to show the contents of grubenv and grub.

Thanks for helping. you're going to need to edit your previous posts and put the text from the files in code tags. Use the BBC tag labeled "code". they look like [ c o d e ] [ / c o d e ]. and check for /etc/default/grub again.
