Thread: grub error 16 dual boot system
my laptop, has long had dual boot xp/ubuntu installed, gives following error when booting:
grub loading stage 1.5.
grub loading. plesae wait...
error 16
booted hot dvd explore/fix, not sure go here.
sudo fdisk -l yields (manually typed in here, start/end not shown)
device boot id system:
/dev/sda1 * 7 hpfs/ntfs
/dev/sda2 f w95 ext'd (lba)
/dev/sda3 82 linux swap / solaris
/dev sda5 7 hpfs/ntfs
determined /dev/sda1 appears primary windows partition. sda2 won't mount without specifying file type - suspect linux partition. sda5 has 1 entry: system volume information.
i'd preserve windows install - don't have toshiba original install disks (sigh).
