Seems you have an unrecoverable read error /dev/sda1. Probably an HD failure. Did you try fsck from the LiveCD?
|
yes I tried fsck but that did not work I repaired the bad sectors with HDTA2 but now when I try to boot up it is saying no operating system found. how can I get pass this

I solved the issue after fixing the bad sectors (which I rate HDTA2 it is a great tool) I used the live cd and mounted the hd the repaired the grub and it worked fine without I having to do clean install and my hd reads healthy thanks everyone
