Grub not working

[dave boland]

Hi,

I have installed Ubuntu 11.04 twice to get Grub to work, but all I get
is a blank screen (no graphics or text), then it boots to Ubuntu Logon
screen.  I really need to get this to work because it is a dual boot
machine (Ubuntu & Windows ME -- until 12/30/11).

Here is what I have/Know -- hope it helps.

Partitions as per GParted:
* dev/sda1;   fat32;     WINDOWS
* dev/sda2;   Extended
*   dev/sda5; fat32;     SHARED
*   dev/sda6; fat32;     BACKUPS
*   dev/sda7; linux-swap; 
*   dev/sda8; ext4;      /
*   dev/sda9; ext4;      /home

The version of Grub is:
grub --version
grub (GNU GRUB 0.97)

Thanks,
Dave
