To sum up, I had two HD on http://askubuntu.com/questions/571295/how-to-solve-grub-rescue-and-or-mounting-hard-drive-problem my machine: one with Ubuntu GNOME 14.04 and another two with Windows 7. I had to connect another HD with windows replacing the other one with windows, copy some files from this hard drive. After that, I connected only this HD and formatted it. Ok, no problem beyond a grub-rescue shell appearing, but I solved changing the boot order of the hard drives (no idea how). Now, I need to pick up those files and place them into the windows hard driver, but again the grub-rescue shell. This time, I tried almost everything, mount it using a Live CD, some stuff in the grub-rescue, changing boot order, nothing. It's not even mounting it when I use windows or a live cd. In that first case, I hadn't a usb stick, but now I got one, I only want to mount the linux hard driver and copy those files. Yes, I've searched for questions like this one here but didn't solved nothing... So, here are some information and things I tried: ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo fdisk -l Disk /dev/sda: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 byte

Join grub hard disk Date Aug 2009 Location Vienna Beans 46 DistroUbuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx HARD DISK ERROR while booting Hi, I just bought a Notebook HP Pavilion dv6 with Windows 7 on it. First thing I did was to format the entire HDD, I created 3 partition; 1 for Windows, 1 for Kubuntu 11.10 and 1 for data. After a while I started to get "HARD DISK ERROR" messages on startup. The message was obviously generated by BIOS. So, I thought it has nothing to do with the OS. I took it back to the shop where I bought it and they send it to HP for replacing the HDD. After 2 weeks I picked it up and they just replaced the RAM memories, updated the BIOS and re-installed Windows 7. But they did not change the HDD. They said there´s nothing wrong with the HDD. I Installed Kubuntu 11.10, single boot, and I am still getting the "HARD DISK ERROR" from the BIOS before Kubuntu even starts loading. This happens 4 times out of 10. Could it be possible that Kubuntu causes the porblem? Does anybody else have that problem? I would take it back to the shop, they would re-install Windows 7 an
the size and geometry of the hard disk failed." To resolve this problem, the manual then suggests that: "The general way that the Stage 1.5 handles errors is to print an error number in the form Error num and then halt. Pressing will reboot." ... which isn't really a suggestion at all. What's really going on is that your BIOS is buggy, and it's lying to GRUB about the geometry of your hard disk. You need to update your motherboard's BIOS with the latest version from the manufacturer. You can can do this by getting the latest version of the BIOS and your manufacturer's reflashing utility from their website, copying it onto a bootable floppy, and running it according to the manufacturer's instructions. You can download a FreeDOS boot disk image for this, if you don't have a DOS boot floppy available. - Mike Hoye, 2007
