Won't boot from hard disk, core 2 duo E4400 based system
Asked by

Hi!
I have a new core 2 duo e4400 based system from Dell. I installed ubuntu 7.04 server version, install went through fine but it won't boot from the hard disk. I see the "Grub message, countdown" and then it just stays blank. If I use the repair option in the install menu, I can open a shell, change the password, look at the directories, etc. I was also able to re-install Grub to (hd0) but this did not help in booting from the hard disk. I tried the desktop version 7.04 but this seems to boot fine from the CD but then won't allow me to login as it keeps saying session timed out. It does not seem to recognize the login on the hard disk. Appreciate any info on how to get over this problem.
Sincerely,
- NN
