stop: c000021a {Fatal System Error} -- newb meets minor heart attack... seeks me
Posted by danleff Grub uses different syntax then what the partition is actually in Linux. "so I noted that my windows drive is referred to as sda1 and tried this: sda1 is the actual partition, not the grub command syntax, so this is why you are getting the Error 23: Error while parsing number. It doesn;t know sda1, but the drives are seen in order of (hd0,0), for example. Where hd0 is the first drive in the system and ,0 is the first partition. Do you have one hard drive on the system, or two? If two, is Ubuntu installed on the same hard drive as your Windows installation? Let's look at this logically. If you get into Ubuntu, go to a terminal window, as root user and type the following; fdisk -l Where i is the small letter "L", not the number 1. This should give you an output of your drives and their partitions. Can you post the result here? HINT: if you don't know. To copy and paste the output of the result, highlight the result text. Choose from the dropdown menu...edit-->copy Move to the post quick reply window and hold down <ctrl> then "v" (on the keyboard). |
