I am dual-booting between Ubuntu and Vista from a 2yr-old TOSHIBA laptop. The version of Ubuntu I was using is 9.10 (ok, should have updated a while back, mea culpa...) Yesterday I couldn't load Ubuntu and I got a message Code: ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/[long number] done not exist. Dropping to a shell! I managed to sort out the problem thanks to this post http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1355385 and used Ubuntu without any problem. Now today I tried to switch the computer on again and I am getting the error message Code: GRUB loading stage 1.5 GRUB loading, please wait... Error 15 Following the advice on the post above, I updated GRUB to GRUB2 last night. Maybe I shouldn't have... The screen with the GRUB error message comes before the screen that would let me choose between Vista and Ubuntu and won't let me use a command prompt or anything.

if the Stage 2 or Stage 1.5 is being read from a hard disk, and

the attempt to determine the size and geometry of the hard disk fails. "Floppy Error" This error message will occur if the grub loading error windows 7 Stage 2 or Stage 1.5 is being read from a floppy disk, and the attempt to determine the size and geometry of the floppy disk fails. It's listed as a different error since the probe sequence https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1612068 is different than for hard disks. "Read Error" This error message will occur if a disk read error happens while trying to read the Stage 2 or Stage 1.5. "Geom Error" This error message will occur if the location of the Stage 2 or Stage 1.5 is not in the area supported by reading the disk with the BIOS directly. This could occur because the BIOS translated geometry has been changed by the http://www.uruk.org/orig-grub/errors.html user or the disk is moved to another machine or controller after installation, or GRUB was not installed using itself (if it was, the Stage 2 version of this error would have been seen during that process and it would not have completed the install). Errors Reported by the Stage 1.5 The general way that the Stage 1.5 handles errors is to print an error number in the form "Error: " and then halt. Pressing Ctrl-Alt-Del will reboot. The error numbers correspond to the Errors Reported by the Stage 2 in the listed sequence. Errors Reported by the Stage 2 The general way that the Stage 2 handles errors is to abort the operation in question, print an error string, then (if possible) either continue based on the fact that an error occurred or wait for the user to deal with the error. The following is a comprehensive list of error messages for the Stage 2 (error numbers for the Stage 1.5 are listed before the colon in each description): 1 : "Selected item won't fit into memory" This error is returned if a kernel, module, or raw file load command is either trying to load it's data such that it won't fit into memory or it is simply too big. 2 : "Selected disk doesn't ex

Error 25 On my system i have Two harddisk (each 19gb) PRIMARY Harddisk :Windows98 Secondary Harddisk: Red Hat 9.0 Memory:384 MB Installation of Red Hat Linux 9.0 went fine without any error. i can boot to Linux by using my boot diskette. Earlier, i was getting the following message while booting: -----------------------------------------
on boot. It seems about half the time i boot/reboot i get this error and the other half grub loads up fine. I am running a 32GB Compact Flash card with a CF to ZIF adapter. I have tried reinstalling grub many times with different options. I know the setup and config are correct because it works sometimes. I could find only one similar error via a google search http://www.mail-archive.com/bug-grub@gn ... 05815.html I may try LILO at this point but would prefer to keep GRUB if i can figure out a fix.

Read up on the "Boot process" here ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_GRUB You'll see that stage 1.5 is the partition table of the drive (first 30k after MBR). When grub reads this, it knows where to find the stage 2 files which of course reside on the hard drive. A read error suggests that there is either some problem with the partition table or possibly it's having a problem reading from your /boot directory to launch stage 2. I'm not sure which is the problem. You might try running fsck on your hdd to see if that fixes it. Cheers. rbil, Dec 11, 2008 #4 Synx Joined: Dec
