I have a Asus Eeepc 1000he that dual boots Windows XP and Ubuntu Netbook Remix. I wanted to try out Kubuntu Netbook, so I installed it to an 8 gig SD-card. After installation, it reboots to this screen:
GRUB loading.
error: no such disk
grub rescue>
Most of the solutions I've found via google and forum searching have suggested that the live-cd installed grub2 over the mbr (or something to that effect). I've read that a few grub-rescue commands can work the problem out, but most of the suggested commands don't seem to work for me. The only two that do work are ls and set.
ls reveals this: "(hd0) (hd0,4) (hd0,3) (hd0,2) (hd0, 1)"
set reveals:
"prefix=(UUID=95fea94d-bf5e-49b0-ad92-af178a8c2a89)/boot/grub
root=UUID=95fea94d-bf5e-49b0-ad92-af178a8c2a89"
Typing "ls (hd0)" or "ls (hd0,4)" and so on just says "error: no such disk." Typing "ls UUID=95fea94d-bf5e-49b0-ad92-af178a8c2a89" or "ls (UUID=95fea94d-bf5e-49b0-ad92-af178a8c2a89)/boot/grub" says the same.
It also seems that I have a "insmod" command, although I have no idea what it does. Can you tell I have no idea what I'm doing?
The strange thing (to me, anyway) is that I can't get into my bios settings or boot from the live-cd (or any other media). The computer seemingly forgoes the normal loading order and skips the bios entirely. Holding down or pressing F2, F8, F12, or Shift doesn't affect the boot in any way. I can't find a way to get help or list commands in the grub rescue prompt, either.
Please help! As it stands now, my netbook is completely useless! I can't even reinstall Windows at this rate
