Wubi doens't work anymore - shows 'No wubildr' error
- by Joe
Basics:
HP Mini 311
Ubuntu netbook edition 10.04 (installed via Wubi)
Symptoms:
I load to Windows Boot Manager as usual. Options are Windows 7 and Ubuntu Netbook, like usual. Selecting Windows 7 does as it should. Loading Ubuntu Netbook, though, does not take me to the usual screen where it lets me select versions of Ubuntu (sorry for bad wording, not sure what the real name is called; it's where you select from about 6 items; I always picked the first due to lack of knowledge without issue). Instead it flashes an error in white on a black screen then restarts very quickly.
It took me a few restarts, but here is the error:
Try (hd0,0): NTSF5 No wubildr
Try (hd0,1): NTSF5:
Situation:
I have no clue what caused it. The only thing I did last night on Ubuntu was install Skype, but the mic didn't work instantly so I got lazy and switched to Windows 7 and used Skype on there. When I tried to switch back to Ubuntu it began this. (There may be something I forget... it was 5 in the morning). There were no recent updates that I remember. No weird activity. Just... random.
Help please?
