Since the boot configuration isn't there, GRUB drops you to the grub-rescue prompt. Following these instructions you should be able to boot Ubuntu.

It shouldn't hurt anything unless the OS grows beyond the amount of extra you have. The simple solution is to install GParted found in the Ubuntu Software-Center. You can simply drag the portion used as the swap space to make it a little bigger and stop the warnings. It's best to do it soon since there's always a small possibil

new Linux system on an old machine, I got grub's: error: out of disk grub rescue> Here's what it means. (This blog entry is not meant for casual reading, but for others who need to diagnose and fix http://www.dudek.org/blog/220 this problem.) Sigh. All I wanted to do today was do some work and some reading. Instead I spent the better part of the day getting an old linux server back on it's feet. Of course, I ended up in the typical rat hole whereby one problem leads to another until you are fixing a problem that is so deeply nested inside others that you can barely recall how it all started. Well, when grub says "out of disk" grub rescue there is a good chance it is related to a BIOS problem. Unfortunately, the error is not well documented in the official grub2 places. The simple story is that grub (or grub2) cannot properly understand the layout of the data on the disk. Here are my suggestions: 1) Check your BIOS settings making note of any that alter a disk interface (i.e some BIOS version have an option for making a CD look like a hard disk, or altering the error hd0 out disk detection system). 2) make sure your disk partition is not too big, if the BIOS is an old one. In my case, I needed to keep my partition size below the critical magical 137G limit. In fact I created a 60G partition and my problem was fixed! 3) Check for a damaged disk structure. Either re-initialize the disk, or do a check (e.g. fscheck) on it. 4) If you are really desperate, consider updating your BIOS (this was one of the steps down the rat hole for me).
