1. After I installed, and before shutting down the computer, I went to System/Administration/Update Manager, checked for updates and then updated everything.
2. Removed the install CD and restarted...
3. Got the "No such device" message.
4. Put the install CD back in and cold booted the computer
5. I entered into the bios (pressing DEL during start up - that might be different for different motherboards) and set the settings to default - just to eliminate any question about bios. On my CMOS utility I entered "Load Optimized Defaults." What ever the settings are, make sure the CDROM boots first, of course. You can check by going to advanced BIOS features and making sure the first boot device is CDROM.
6. From the Ubuntu CD, select language (english, in my case) and then "Boot from first hard disk."
7. Selected the first entry and pressed "e" for edit.
8. I edited the code, removing the line; "search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 123456-7890-abcd-efghijklmnop " ("123456-7890-abcd-efghijklmnop" is different for different hardware), then I pressed ctrl-x to boot.
9. The OS booted and once in the system I opened a terminal; Applications/Accessories/Terminal.
10. In the terminal I entered "sudo nautilus" then entered password.
11. Waited for nautilus to open, then in the file browser I browsed to the main file system (what ever that is called) by pressing the "up" button (twice - go as high as you can go...).
12. Navigated to boot/grub/grub.cfg
13. Before opening grub.cfg, right click, select properties, select permissions. Change the second selection box (for owner access) to "read and write." Then close.
14. Open grub.cfg
15. Ignore the comment "DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE" at the top of the file
16. Find the section that begins with: "####BEGIN /etc/grub.d/10_linux..." (This might be different for different versions of ubuntu.)
17. Remove the line that reads search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 123456-7890-abcd-efghijklmnop. This might be a few about 6 lines down.
18. You might want to remove that same line in the section for "recovery mode," I didn't, but it might be a good idea.
19. Press save, if it doesn't let you save - then you forgot to change the permissions - go back to step 13.
20. Right click on grub.cfg, select properties>permissions and change owner access back to "read only." Then close.
21. Navigate to the file system using the "up" button or by pressing the file system icon.
22. Navigate to etc/default/grub.
23. Right click to access properties and change permissions of owner access to read and write. Then close
24. Open grub and find the line GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 (this was 3 for four lines down on my version) and change to #GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0. The "#" turns the command off so that the computer doesn't read it. (This step might not be necessary - but it is working, so I won't fool with it.)
25. Save and close. Then enter the properties of grub again and change the permissions back to read only for owner access.
26. Close out all windows, remove install CD and shut down...
27. Restart...
28. The GNU GRUB window shows up and automatically boots Ubuntu generic after 4 seconds.
29. They you are in...
Tuossa todellakin englanninkieliset ohjeet. Voisin kuvitella, että ongelma ratkeaisi boottaamalla Live CD:llä, tekemällä noi annetut muutokset grub.cfg -tiedostoon ja boottaamalla uusiksi. Oma aika ei nyt kyllä riitä kääntämiseen, sorry!
EDIT:
1. Boottaa LiveCD:ltä sisään niin, että voit muokata koneen tiedostoja
2. Avaa Pääte
3. Anna seuraavat komennot:
sudo chmod 777 boot/grub/grub.cfg
sudo nano boot/grub/grub.cfg
Etsi seuraavan kaltainen kohta: "####BEGIN /etc/grub.d/10_linux..."
Poista rivi "search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 123456-7890-abcd-efghijklmnop" (Saattaa vaihdella hieman järjestelmästä toiseen, alkaa kuitenkin aina noin, n. 6 riviä tuon ####BEGIN kohdan alapuolella)
Paina Ctrl + X, nano kysyy haluatko tallentaa, vastaa myöntävästi (tiedostonimi voi ja pitää olla sama!)
sudo chmod 444 boot/grub/grub.cfg
4. Uudelleenkäynnistä
Tuossa saattaa olla vakaviakin virheitä, mutta pikavilkaisulla noin fiksaantuisi! Viisaammat korjatkaa.
