BluesKaj | hi Greta | 02:16 |
Greta | how is everyone this evening? | 02:43 |
BluesKaj | fine, but not many ppl here tonight | 02:49 |
uhohuhoh | Hello, anyone around? | 03:25 |
uhohuhoh | I'm in a bit of trouble... | 03:25 |
ball | Yup | 03:26 |
uhohuhoh | Sweet! | 03:26 |
uhohuhoh | When my computer boots up, I'm getting a "error: unkown filesystem", and then a "grub rescue>" console. | 03:26 |
uhohuhoh | I tried to do a bit of reading, and I understand I'm in rescue mode | 03:26 |
ball | uhohuhoh: Time to re-image and reach for your backup I should think. | 03:27 |
uhohuhoh | when I hit ls, to see the partitions | 03:27 |
uhohuhoh | I had a Win7 partition - is that destroyed too? | 03:27 |
ball | uhohuhoh: Potentially. You had that backed up too, right? | 03:27 |
uhohuhoh | No, but it's not a particularly big deal :/ | 03:28 |
uhohuhoh | when I hit ls | 03:28 |
uhohuhoh | I do see a bunch of "msdosX" partitions, where x is a number | 03:28 |
uhohuhoh | No linux partitions. | 03:28 |
* ball isn't very familiar with grub, though I'm told its what we have to use with Linux these days. | 03:28 | |
uhohuhoh | Hmm | 03:28 |
uhohuhoh | so I couldn't load any of the other partitions? | 03:29 |
* ball shrugs | 03:29 | |
* ball <- not familiar with grub | 03:29 | |
uhohuhoh | Darn, alright, thanks. | 03:30 |
uhohuhoh | Where else could I go apart form #ubuntu? | 03:30 |
ball | uhohuhoh: This is probably as good a place as any, though in my experience #ubuntu-uk is often busier. That said, it's 03:32 there now. | 03:32 |
uhohuhoh | I'll try that | 03:32 |
uhohuhoh | Thanks for your help so far! | 03:33 |
BluesKaj | Hiyas | 13:29 |
