/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off

[Sagnik]

Hi All,

I know this is a common error, and I have tried to check out possible ways
to solve it, but without any luck.

When I boot into Ubuntu (2.6.20-15-generic), I am thrown into the initramfs
prompt, with the following error message: "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job
control turned off"

I have tried the steps mentioned here :
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=421588
but the error continues to exist. I can get past this using "modprobe piix",
then "exit". But why does this error appear at all?? Why can't I get booted
into Ubuntu without getting stuck at the initramfs prompt?

Could you pls help?

Thanks!
