[07:34] listening to TED talks [07:35] ok ty trying to help ian fix his kubuntu [07:35] boots to initramfs prompt [07:35] what's wrong with it? [07:36] he did an upgrade and i think it crashed halfway [07:36] now wont boot from cd even [07:36] okay will check the net. what has been tried so far? [07:37] and i need to have him boot from cd to fix grub [07:37] still getting the prompt? [07:37] I'm out.. me and mah band's gonna record today.. cheers [07:37] cheers dLimit [07:37] cheers [07:37] he is trying to reboot now but its taking forever [07:38] does he dual boot with windows? [07:38] yes win7 [07:39] it might be the windows causing it [07:40] now he is in the grub prompt [07:41] found this www.proposedsolution.com/solutions/ubuntu-booting-to-initramfs-prompt [07:41] brb [07:53] right back just had to restart the tablet [07:53] np [07:53] he is in grub> [07:53] i cant find commands to use there to restore grub [07:57] do you know what grub he was using? [07:58] the one in kubuntu 11.04 [07:58] must be grub2 i think [07:58] unless they gone to 3 [07:59] think so [08:01] www.terabyteunlimited.com/kb/article.PHP?id=408 [08:03] he has to go out on a call now sorry magespawn [08:03] no worries [08:04] Kilos this is a paste of the artice http://slexy.org/view/s2qYpWbAbW [08:05] that was me just from the laptop [08:05] ty greg that is you hey [08:05] yup [08:06] easier to search with a full keyboard [08:06] cool ty i will get it and see if it can help when he gets back [08:07] hehe helpful guy this Eames but doesnt say cheers [08:07] lol [08:07] hehe [08:10] that looks good from line20 [08:10] hopefully that will work. we will see when he gets back [08:11] can he reinstall or is that not an option? [08:12] it refuse to boot from cd [08:13] but if these grub. commands dont work i will get him to plug drive into the pc we fixed yesterday and run boot-repair [08:13] aw mrs_fly never goes off [08:13] mrs_fly, wb [08:14] hi superfly [08:14] that might just be a bios setting or damaged cd. I had pc refuse to boot from cd but boot fine from a live USB [08:15] then something corrupted the bios. he has checked it is set to boot from cd. thats how he installed kubntu and win7 [08:15] but these grub prompt commands sound promising [08:18] i been looking for them for ages back when i had similar probs. ty magespawn [08:18] no worries [08:18] I also tend to save links I find to my evernote account [08:19] im saving that whole paste to a file i will add here and on usb drive [08:19] lo MPD [08:21] bi [08:23] even quicker than that Eames character [08:23] Kilos I can share the evermore with if you want [08:23] evernote [08:24] what is it?
