Public bug reported:

The original problem was that Ubuntu would not launch on my dual boot
machine.  I got errors like: "failed command: read DMA EXT" and "status
DRDY ERR" and "error UNC."  Messages that made me wonder about hard
drive failure.  However, after I ran boot-repair (from an Ubuntu 12.04
live CD) and it failed, I lost my boot screen and couldn't get into
Ubuntu or Windows.  All the disk scans I ran showed no hard drive
problems..  I got failure messages during the boot repair.  Here is the
report from the repair: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1019494/

** Affects: grub2 (Ubuntu)
