[Bug 477104] Re: After 9.10 grub update can not boot into Wubi install

[800xlman]

Forgive me I am new to ubuntu 9.10 this is my problem. I did my updates
and the computer got stuck at sh:grub> prompt now I typed this in

sh:grub>insmod ntfs
sh:grub>set root=(hd0,1)
sh:grub>loopback loop0 /ubuntu/disks/root.disk
sh:grub>set root=(loop0)
sh:grub>linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-14-generic root=/dev/sda1 loop=/ubuntu/disks/root.disk ro
sh:grub>initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.31-14-generic
sh:grub>boot

and I am into ubuntu but my windows xp will not boot it says missing
windows root\system32\hal.dll

but ubuntu does load and work looking on another thread I saw somebody
typed this in the terminal

sudo update-grub2

I did this and it reinstalled grub 2 but I am afraid to reboot

also I mounted my windows drive in ubuntu checked that directory
windows root\system32\hal.dll and that file is there.

Thank you for any help

since I have used ubuntu 9.10 I have not used xp so I do not care if it
works but since ubuntu is installed in it and it disintegrates will that
not take ubuntu with it?
