This is another way to fix the ''GRUB Error Rescue'' problem. A very easy way, that I highly recommend! I didn't say in the video, that this method only works for GRUB 2

All you need is an Ubuntu Live-CD and you're good to go!

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yannubuntu/boot-repair
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install boot-repair-ubuntu

  • Thanks much...very helpful! After doing many very complex fixes via command line, that "sort of" worked in 11.10 - this solved some of it. Though it turns out is really more a hardware issue with my new computer and the motherboard. This is the first time I've ever had any real issues with Linux.

  • it look so promising but after rebooting it still gave me that command message of grub rescue.

    do you know maybe what could be wrong?

    thank you!
