I used my laptop this morning and everything was working fine. But I just got home and turned on the laptop and it won't boot! I get: GRUB loading (as usual) but after that I get: error: out of disk. grub rescue> I even tried booting from an Ubuntu CD. I boots, but any option I choose gives me a black screen with nothing but a _ as if I have to type a command or something. I know it can't possibly mean I'm out of disk space; I had plenty left. Besides, it all worked perfectly this morning. In fact, I didn't even run Ubuntu this morning, I used Vista! I anyone could help me I would really appreciate it. By the way, I'm a total newb when it comes to command prompts and whatever... Anyway, thx! Adv Reply Nov

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

I've removed all other disks, so /dev/sda (the USB disk) is the only disk other than CDROM. I installed Ubuntu 9.10 to this disk from the live CD, putting the bootloader on /dev/sda . The default system couldn't be booted, and nothing I did in the Grub menu/cmdline helped. So I chrooted onto the disk and did grub-install /dev/sda. That seemed out of disk to work fine, but Grub (1.97 beta 4) keeps coming up with error: out of disk Even when I drop to the command line to do something simple like ls or help, it's always the same error message. Any hints for resolving this, please? linux boot external-hard-drive grub share|improve this question edited Jun 16 '10 at 16:09 quack quixote 31.3k1068114 asked Dec 30 '09 at 11:18 Carl Smotricz 5541516 Wait a minute, are you trying to make an external USB-Harddisk bootable? –Bobby Feb 10 '10 at 15:02 @Bobby: Yes, I was trying to make an extern USB disk bootable. It's possible to configure it as bootable in the BIOS, and it does kinda boot, though inconsistently. I gave up without figuring out the whole problem, but it seems to have been timing related. It would work sometimes and sometimes not. I'm hoping that by the next time I have similar problems, grub2 will be more standard and have more robust error handling. –Carl Smotricz Mar 2 '10 at 19:22 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 4 down vote accepted Does Grub2 drop you into a grub rescue> prompt after this error? This thread suggests that getting the rescue prompt means Grub2 can't find a usable grub.cfg file. See Grub2 Rescue Mode for a method to locate your system installation and
