What is swap? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq One thing to mention also, if you hibernate your system, make sure you have at least as much swap space as you have physical ram.
.hii i want to know whether i can create more partition like in windows i hav a dual boot windows and ubuntu i hav only the root partition i dont know how to make more partitions to save my data on ubuntu pls help me out .
Ok. So I need to reinstall Grub on my 1TB drive that has 32bit ubuntu - (That's the one that won't boot and has most of my stuff on it). So, I'll need to use my 32 bit live Ubuntu CD, boot from it, and reinstall Grub to the 1TB drive with Ubuntu 32 bit.
@8VMikeMaxtD it does install by default. I was just trying to figure out your old setup. If you installed Grub to your first hard drive (the one that's not the 1tb with ubuntu 32-bit on it) when you wiped it out to put Kubuntu 64-bit on it, it would replace grub, leaving the 2nd drive unbootable.
@8VMikeMaxtD so you've got Kubuntu 64-bit on one drive, and Ubuntu 32-bit on another? Which one is hooked up when you get the grub rescue prompt? Is it the master or slave?
Any chance of you doing some video on partitioning in Fedora?

sorry, I don't know if I installed GRUB or no. :/ I just burned the images and installed from the live CD.
Doesn't GRUB just get installed by default if Ubuntu/Kubuntu needs it?

@8VMikeMaxtD I think you're right about the master/slave thing. I haven't dealt with it in a long time.
Out of curiosity, how did you have it set up before installing Kubuntu 64-bit? Did you happen to have Grub installed to that drive, or to the 1Tb one?

I didn't know there was a master and slave configuration for SATA drives. Wasn't that for PATA drives only?
Anyway, I get the prompt after I try to set up boot priority in BIOS to the 1TB drive with the 32 bit Ubuntu/Kubuntu.

I have a GIGABYTE GA-MA785GM-US2H DDR2 2x2GB @800MHz mobo, if that helps.
