-While booting your grub bootloader, press "e", enter the edit mode.

-Press "e" on the first line.

-(hd0,0) Change the last 0 to a 2, so it reads: (hd0,2).

-Press ‘b’ to boot.

Good luck.

How can I connect the USB Bluetooth bugs in Ubuntu 8.10?

<p>USB and Bluetooth connectivity errors in Ubuntu 8.10 are the result of two different errors. If you are running KDE, you have a patch on their Bluetooth connectivity problems (see Resources) to download correct. USB connection errors are the result of a bug in the current version of the Linux kernel. Run "apt-get package manager to upgrade the kernel is usually the fastest and most trouble-free. After the upgrade, the system restarts. <br /> <p><br /> <p>1. Open a copy of the console when running a graphical user interface (GUI). <br /> <p><br /> <p>2. Type "apt-get update" and press "Enter". <br /> <p><br /> <p>3. Type "apt-get upgrade" and press "Enter". The window that appears available updates. Find anything related to the kernel that "n" followed by pressing "Enter". <br /> <p><br /> <p>4. Type "apt-get install package-name" where "package name" is the updated version of the kernel. Press Enter. Confirm that you have to install the update by typing "Y" and press "Enter". Once the upgrade is complete, restart your computer. <br />

Trying to install an Iogear gwu625 in Ubuntu

Hey Richard,

Which version of Ubuntu are you trying to install this on??

The minimum requirement is that you have at least kernel version 2.6.27.5-117 or later installed. This works with Ubuntu 11.04

It will not work with any kernel versions previous to this. If you are having trouble installing it, you might have to upgrade your Ubuntu and kernel version for this to work.

I installed Ubunto 9.0 AND when it came up it said, GRUB LOAD,no such partition, then at a prompt it says,grub rescue.

If you run a dual-boot system with Linux and Windows, this has happened to you. You had to do your monthly reinstall of Windows, and now you don’t see the linux bootloader anymore, so you can’t boot into Ubuntu or whatever flavor of linux you prefer.
Here’s the quick and easy way to re-enable Grub.
1) Boot off the LiveCD
2) Open a Terminal and type in the following commands, noting that the first command will put you into the grub “prompt”, and the next 3 commands will be executed there. Also note that hd0,0 implies the first hard drive and the first partition on that drive, which is where you probably installed grub to during installation. If not, then adjust accordingly.
sudo grub
> root (hd0,0)
> setup (hd0)
> exit
Reboot (removing the livecd), and your boot menu should be back.

Only read below if Windows is now missing from the boot menu
If you installed Ubuntu before you installed Windows, then Ubuntu will not have anything in the grub configuration for Windows. This is where you’ll have to do a bit of manual editing to the grub boot menu file.
If you open the file /boot/grub/menu.lst with the following command:
sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
You’ll see a sample section for Windows, which you’ll want to uncomment and add to the boot menu list in whatever position you want it in. (uncomment by removing the #’s)
# title Windows 95/98/NT/2000
# root (hd0,0)
# makeactive
# chainloader +1
Note that you should also verify that hd0,0 is the correct location for Windows. If you had installed Windows on the 4th partition on the drive, then you should change it to (hd0,3)

I just installed ubuntu installed mp3 kodec

When you start your pc just after it listed your hardware, before starting the grub graphic of Ubuntu, press the esc key, and change your kernel using the arrow on your keyboard, to the previous kernel, as fare as i remember one the kernel was having a bug, just before i upgraded to Ubuntu intrepid 8.10, if you did not do the full upgrade, then go to http://www.ubuntu-unleashed.com/ and search for the latest kernel, my best advice is go to http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading and follow the steps base on your Ubuntu os, any problem come back to me [email protected]
