Good Evening All,
I just got my HP Laptop Back from the factory and then I tried to install Ubuntu.
It got through the whole installation, however, when I restarted and chose Ubuntu a quick screen flashes that says:
Try (hd0,0) NTFS5: no wubildr
Try (hd0,1) NTFS5:
Then it quickly goes to the Boot Loader which I am presented with:
Windows 7 (loader) (on /dev/sda1)
Windows Vista (loader) (on /dev/sda2)
Windows Vista (loader) (on /dev/sda3)
Of course if I click Win 7 it'll go to the main screen to choose between Win 7 or Ubuntu, if I choose Vista, it'll come with an error of sorts.
The strange thing is, I looked in my C:/ Drive and I see wubildr and wubilder.mbr
Idk if it makes a difference but I am running a 64-bit processor. Installed the 64-bit desktop version and am presented with ultra-fail.
I've gone to: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?s=4d54a8d3760f6fe805156524b7ab9acf&t=798283&page=1
But have had no luck.
/wubildr
file on all partitions. It reports this message for each partition that doesn't have it. When it finds it, it uses it. Wubi users report this often because it's something they can see, but it rarely is helpful in and of itself. E.g. in this case, the error is that the packagelupin-support
is not present, so Grub doesn't create entries for the actual Wubi install. But in other cases, it could be aroot.disk
corruption, or maybe a graphics card issue requiringnomodeset
(if you get my drift)
