I have tried to reinstall grub but I got the following message,
W: Not using locking for read only file /var/lib/dpkg/lock
E: Unable to write to /var/cache/apt/
E: The package list or status file could not be parsed or opened.
Also I have tried to replace menu.lst but I got the message: /boot/grub/menu.lst E212: Can't open file for writing.
After you mentioned that some hardware connections where wrong I checked them but they are alright.
Also I didn't attempt to reinstall windows.
I was trying to see the files on an other computer by using something similar to explorer (don't know how it is called under linux) he could see the other computer on the network but when I tried to open a shared map it hung and didn't respond anymore.
Than I restarted the computer and it hang somewhere after the GRUB but he said to run in recovery mode and run fsck. after don that and rebooted again I got the error in GRUB.
I thing I do something wrong when I run the live cd so that I haven't root permission.
O, for the record I am a complete
but not afraid to learn from my mistakes, the reason that I run linux is that windows crashed continuously. I use debian sarge for more than 7 months without problems, and now when I want to do something more it crashed. But I still like it.
