I can boot a Live CD of the same version no problem but when I installed it to the hard drive it just seems to fall over. I've tried adjusting the boot order, putting the HDD first and removing everything else but no joy. Im a linux n00b so no idea what to do next apart from go back to windows Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

When I rebooted, I was greeted with the disk read error message "Read Error" in the top left corner. I booted into a LiveCD, and tried fdisk -l which gave me the following output: root@ubuntu:/home/ubuntu# fdisk -l fdisk: unable to read /dev/sda: Inappropriate ioctl for device I immediately imaged the drive with gddrescue, and then proceeded to run e2fsck. That seemed to complete successfully, and now when I run fsck, I get: fsck from util-linux 2.20.1e2fsck 1.42.8 (20-Jun-2013) /dev/sda1: clean, 1475560/18317312 files, 48594157/73242187 blocks So all seems good over there. However, I still cannot get any output from fdisk, and when I reboot, I still get the same error. boot hard-drive share|improve this question asked Nov 10 '13 at 14:05 blockhead 11113 what did your gparted partition editor shows? –Avinash Raj Nov 10 '13 at 14:28 It showed an ext4 partition at sda1 and an extended partition at sda1 which when expanded, opens up to show a swap partition at ext5 –blockhead Nov 10 '13 at 14:50 But I'm running from a LiveCD, so how will updating the kernel help? –blockhead Nov 10 '13 at 16:41 Can you mount /dev

You need to post the link it provides to show what it's doing and what state you are in afterwards. –bcbc Nov 15 '12 at 7:29 Related: How can I repair grub?

It worked for me. askubuntu.com/questions/216800/… –user133437 Feb 19 '13 at 7:48 add a comment| 5 Answers 5 active oldest votes up vote 2 down vote I had the same problem and I fixed it by standing on the Windows 7 loader drive and press E to edit. My insmod was set to ldm and the set root was set to /ldm/(lotofhexnumbers)/volume1. So I edit these two lines and press Ctrl+X this will boot but will not save this is just for testing. insmod part_msdos set root='(hd0,msdos1)' If it works for you, boot back in to Ubuntu sudo gedit /boot/grub/grub.cfg. Look for menuentry the name of your boot profile, edit the lines below and save, reboot and selecting the Windows will boot normally
