Hi I have run fsck and after reboot I've got grub rescue promt
I'm using ubuntu server with lxde desktop on this htpc
ls gives me this partitions (hd0) (hd0,msdos5) (hd0,msdos3) (hd0,msdos1)
when i run ls (hd0) - unknown filesystem , and that is for all partitions
What prompted you to do that? Problems with the server? What problems? Was this server up and running for some time? A new install?
