The installation went well as shown on http://www.ubuntu.com/download/help/install-ubuntu-with-windows - but when booted through 'ubuntu' option, a screen shows a grub> prompt. What to do next??

  • Run `chkdsk /r` and then check if the `\ubuntu\disks\root.disk` is there - or else refer to this: http://ubuntu-with-wubi.blogspot.ca/2011/08/missing-rootdisk.html – bcbc Nov 07 '12 at 16:38
  • PS I am assuming that you booted into Ubuntu successfully before this problem happened. Please edit your answer to confirm either way (more details are better). – bcbc Nov 07 '12 at 16:45

This was answered in a comment (this answer might not be sufficient for everyone, but it will likely solve the problem for many people, and provide a source of diagnostic information for even more).

Run chkdsk /r and then check if the \ubuntu\disks\root.disk is there - or else refer to this: ubuntu-with-wubi.blogspot.ca/2011/08/missing-rootdisk.html
