    WUBI Installation Upgrade Problem

    Last year I did a WUBI installation of Kubuntu 10.04 on my wife's computer, which runs MS Vista. Everything worked fine -- upon booting the machine I would get a "WINDOWS BOOT MANAGER" screen which allowed me to choose either Vista or Kubuntu -- both OSs worked fine.

    Today I decided to upgrade the WUBI Kubuntu installation from Kubuntu 10.04 to 12.04, which I did by invoking

    "do-release-upgrade -d"

    from the Kubuntu 10.04 terminal program.

    The upgrade SEEMED to go smoothly, but now when I reboot the machine and choose "Kubuntu" at the WINDOWS BOOT MANAGER screen, all I get is a terminal screen which says,

    "GNU GRUB version 1.98-1ubuntu13", with a

    GRUB>

    prompt. I'm unable to get Kubuntu to boot from this screen.

    Is there a way to recover from this situation, or am I facing a re-installation of Kubuntu 12.04?
