Hi guys,

I have this problem "GRUB Error 15: file not found" and Confused, finally tried some methods that didn't work successfully, but still no luck. Then I try the Ubuntu forums, to discover anyone having the same problem. But there are some differences. Yes I have tried many things.

And I need your help now.

Thanks.

Minimal BASH- like line editing is supported. For the first word, TAB lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists the possible completions of a device/filename.

Error:

Dear user,



Which error you get from your computer, it’s real and simple. Because the file Grub wants but not found there. So, solution also simple. Please do as below.



Please collects a Live CD and then open your computer with this CD and then open Terminal. Now write below command



fdisk -l | grep -i Linux



You will see as below result. This is for your example:



/dev/hda3            1276        1397      979902   82 Linux swap / Solaris

/dev/hda4            1398        2550     9261441   83 Linux



Here /dev/hda3 is swap and /dev/hda4 is the root partition.



If you see this then, now please open /boot/grub/menu.lst file. This must be look like as below.



Title        Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.26-2-686

Root       (hd0, 3)

Kernel        /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-2-686 root=/dev/hda4 ro

initrd        /boot/initrd.img-2.6.26-2-686



Title        Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.26-2-686 (single-user mode)

Root       (hd0, 3)

Kernel        /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-2-686 root=/dev/hda4 ro single

initrd        /boot/initrd.img-2.6.26-2-686



If you found any difference in this file. Then please make it similar.



For example if you found the root (hda, 4). Then please change it to root (hd0, 3)



Now Save this file and restart your computer.
