Ubuntu 9.1 will not reboot after installing latest updates

The command line it gives is for manual grub boot loader entry. Try to reinstall Ubuntu (hopefully it's 32 bit). But first what laptop model is it?

Hi, it is a Toshiba Satellite pro L500 running an intel t5870 chip and I
think it had the 64 bit version of Ubuntu 9.1 on it, thanks geoff

Geoff,

Did you get a good answer on this problem. I have the same problem. I really don't like the reinstall option but oh well.

tnx

hi moz man, do you have a toshiba laptop? the current opinion is that
there is some software in there from Toshiba that is causing the grief.
But no I have no solution to my problem yet. I will get my data off
first I guess and then the only option is to reinstall. good luck geoff

you can boot with a live cd and reinstall grub on your hard disk.

use grub-install command.

Geoff,
I have an Acer running AMD ATHLON 64X2 3GB RAM Windows 7 and I used Wubi to install AMD 64 version of ubuntu. I get the exact simptoms. I uninstalled and reinstalled and receive the same results. So maybe I need to rework the partitions on the hard drive and do a diffrent install. The thing is it was working for months and then I updated a couple of days ago and it never booted again.

sounds like the same problem. I also used Wubi to install the 64 bit
Ubuntu. Have not yet tried reinstall as I need to recover data first.

I got a good idea how about if you just check for updates but don't install them because installing the updates its allways bad for me.

and go to preference then startup application and remove updates from the startup

checking updates once is important that way it lets me install things in add/remove applications

I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing issues with rebooting Ubuntu 9.1 after installing the latest updates. Here are a few steps you can try to resolve the problem:

Try a forced reboot: If your system appears to be unresponsive, you can perform a forced reboot by pressing and holding the power button for a few seconds until the system powers off. After that, press the power button again to turn it back on and see if it boots up properly. I am also facing the same issue on my one of my client Spanish Website <a href="https://ttattack.com/">먹튀검증사이트</a>

Check for error messages: During the boot process, pay attention to any error messages or notifications that appear on the screen. These messages can provide valuable information about the cause of the issue. If you see any error messages, take note of them or consider taking a picture to reference later.

Boot into recovery mode: Ubuntu has a recovery mode that allows you to troubleshoot and fix certain issues. To access it, restart your computer and, during the boot process, press and hold the Shift key until the GRUB menu appears. From there, select the recovery mode option and follow the prompts to see if you can diagnose and resolve the problem.

Check for disk errors: It's possible that there may be some disk errors affecting the boot process. You can use the fsck (file system check) command to scan and fix any errors on your disk. Boot into recovery mode (as mentioned in step 3), then select the option to open a terminal. Once the terminal opens, run the command: "fsck /dev/sda1" (replace /dev/sda1 with the appropriate disk/partition identifier for your system). Follow the prompts and allow the command to complete its process.

Consider reinstalling the updates: If the issue persists, you may want to consider reinstalling the updates that were recently installed. Boot into recovery mode, open a terminal, and run the command: "sudo apt-get install --reinstall packagename" (replace "packagename" with the name of the package that caused the issue or the updates in general).
