<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Hi,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I have Ubuntu in an external disk drive, I took the
HD from my laptop and put in a larger drive, and for setting things up, I was
able to boot to my old HD in the external drive via cable, and use the old
install of Ubuntu.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>But the cord got unplugged during boot up and now
it looks like a DOS terminal window, I cannot read the stuff on the screen, but
I'm guessing that the prompt at the cursor reads boot:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>My question is, </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>How does one get a failed Ubuntu to boot up in such
a situation?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Is it working at that prompt, and will it
eventually boot up?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I'm pretty sure there's no grub window, but there
should be, but if there is, how many arrow downs is it on the GRUB menu to
repair it?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Thanks.</FONT></DIV>
