I found this while DDG'ing your problem:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1003...be-stuck-there

I have resolved my issue so I decided to answer my own question.
I was able to boot my computer through GRUB, by making minor adaptations to the instructions here:
https://www.linux.com/learn/how-resc...g-grub-2-Linux

At the GRUB prompt, I typed: "ls" to get a list of all partitions.

The list looked something like this: (hd0) (hd0,gpt1) (hd0,gpt2) ...


After I got a list of partitions, I then typed: "ls (hd0,1)/" to determine if the boot menu was in that partition. Note that at this point you can drop "gpt" and just go with the number of the partition. I did this for every partition until I found out which one contained the boot directory.


For me it turned out that the boot menu was in (hd0,2)


So then I typed the following command: "ls (hd0,2)/boot" to get a list of files in the boot directory.


The important files in this regard, as I understand from the above link, are a file called vmlinuz and a file called initrd.img. I suppose it is normal that there will be different versions of these two files (among other files in the boot menu). In any case, I noted the latest version for both, and it is important, apparently, that both vmlinuz and initrd have the same version number.


Having noted that, I then typed the following commands. The partition number and version number may be different for other people, but it is important, as mentioned, that vmlinuz and initrd have the same version number, and that the number following "sda" corresponds to the partition number.


grub> set root=(hd0,2)
grub> linux /boot/vmlinuz-4.4.0-89-generic root=/dev/sda2
grub> initrd /boot/initrd.img-4.4.0-89-generic
grub> boot


And it worked, in the sense that it booted, without any apparent error messages. I don't know if I can reboot, but I now have the opportunity to copy all files that weren't backed up to an external hard-disk. Plus I'll probably download and make a new installation DVD. (I had misplaced my original installation DVD, which was part of my problem). And then I'll try to reboot.

how can i solve?

It seems that you hibernated Windows before you attempted to install or boot into Kubuntu. Do what the error msg told you, THREE times:

Windows is hibernated, refused to mount.
The disk contains an unclean file system (0, 0).
Metadata kept in Windows cache, refused to mount.
Falling back to read-only mount because the NTFS partition is in an
unsafe state. Please resume and shutdown Windows fully (no hibernation
or fast restarting.)
The disk contains an unclean file system (0, 0).

and, don't start a new thread for an existing problem. You should have posted this under the link you gave.

I found a solution for Pardus linux like this:

sudo fdisk -l komutu ile sisteminizin kurulu olduğu disk bölümünü tespit ediniz.sudo mount /dev/sdx? /mnt komutu ile sisteminizin kurulu olduğu bölümü bağlayınız. /sdx? yerine sisteminizin yüklü olduğu kendi disk bölümünüzü yanınız (sda2, sda3, sdf1 vb)
sudo mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev komutu ile gerekli olacak bölümü ekleyiniz.
sudo chroot /mnt komutuyla /mnt altında yetkili olarak işlem yapmamız sağlanacaktır.
sudo grub-install /dev/sda komutuyla grub önyükleyicisini yeniden kurabilirsiniz.
sudo update-grub
Kurulum tamamlandı. Hata rapor edilmedi, görüyor iseniz işlem tamamdır.
sudo grub-install --recheck /dev/sda ile tekrar kontrol edebilirsiniz.
Bağlı diskleri aşağıdaki komutlar ile ayırıp yeniden başlatınız.
sudo umount /mnt/dev
sudo umount /mnt

sudo reboot

in second line says write the disk partition which contains linux after /dev/

"sudo mount /dev/sdx? /mnt"

but i dont know which disk partition contains my linux

my fdisk output:

can you analyze that which disk part. is correct for me?

[comonda2]

also pasted link contains some outputs about disk infos.

[comonda2]

opps bios doesnt detect ssd which contains linux

[GreyGeek]

"sudo fdisk -l" does indeed detect and show my ssd, which is at sda1.

A partition formatted with EXT4 or Btrfs will show "Linux" or "Linux Filesystem" as the type.

Did you, perchance, install Kubuntu on sdb2 ? (A FAT32 partition).
