grub rescue, error: no such device:

location: ubuntuforums.com - date: August 14, 2011
I recently installed ubuntu 11.04 on my desktop. I moved 1000 miles away, and my computer was a car for 26 hours, and this afternoon I added more RAM. That was all before booting today. When turning on my computer, after the bios screen, this message shows up error: no such device : 9942b174-aae8-480c-a2c3-ba2e9a58fe21 grub rescue> I have no idea what to do to fix it, and I spent an hour or so looking around on the forums. I really just need to be able to get to my Windows partition, but I cannot figure out how to do that. Sorry if this is formatted incorrectly, I'm very new to this forum =]

HI. I have a problem. every time i boot my laptop i get error: no such device. [insert numbers] grub rescue> I've tried many things to fix it and nothing has worked. I have a liveCD but it won't read it. and the only command i can do is grub rescue> ls (hd0) (hd0,4) (hd0,3) (hd0,2) (hd0,1) (hd1) (hd1,1) i cant do anything else i always get "unknown filesystem" or "unknown command" I really don't know what to do anymore. I need to get back into Windows 7 because I have all my files on that...and if i do what my friend told me to do (wipe the hard drive) i'd lose EVERYTHING and I really dont want to go back and re download 3100 songs and rewrite all my music. So if you can help it'd be much appreciated. Arigatou ~Silver

Grub Rescue, error: no such device: (unknow UUID)

location: ubuntuforums.com - date: June 2, 2013
I installed a new motherboard last night and can not boot. Grub comes up with no such device. The UUID it lists does not match any drives or partitions I have or have had. The grub.cfg lists all the proper UUIDs and does not list the one it states is missing. I have tried grub-update, grub-install --recheck, etc. Nothing seems to be working. and I can not find this UUID listed anywhere so I do not know where GRUB is getting it. Fstab only has one UUID and it is correct. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I just installed Ubuntu on a separate hard drive alongside Vista, and after restarting, my computer booted to a screen that said, "error: no such device: xxxxx-xxxx-xxxxx-xxxx (I don't remember exact number, if I need them I'll go back and write em down) grub rescue>" After a bit of searching I found this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1014708 I tried the first part twice which didn't change anything, so I tried the last part which was too fix the vista bootloader, which worked perfectly, and now I can get into at least one operating system. Would anyone please help me get a bootloader working so I can choose between Ubuntu and Vista? Also, is it worth mentioning that right before the computer shut down after installation, I had a huge list of I/O errors? EDIT: After further searching I read that the I/O errors were commonly because of a faulty cd or it was spinning too fast. I think my problem with that was that it was spinning too fast, it was incr

Error: no such device grub rescue HELP!!!

So here's my situation: I have two desktops. One is using Windows XP Media Center and my new desktop doesn't have an OS yet. I tried installing Ubuntu 11.04 on my new desktop but the dvd drive wasn't working. So I hooked up the harddrive via USB to my old desktop and installed Ubuntu on the new harddrive. I did that thinking I could then install the hdd in my new desktop and Ubuntu would work. When I removed the external harddrive and restarted my old desktop I got the following "error: no such device, grub rescue" I can connect the external harddrive and then grub will load and I can choose which OS to load. I have tried Windows recovery using fixboot and fixmbr; however, fixmbr does nothing and fixboot gives the following "FIXBOOT cannot find the system drive, or the drive specified is not valid". I have also tried copy e:\i386\ntldr c:\ but that gives me Access is denied. Can anyone please help me fix this. I am not wanting linux on my old desktop, and I would l

Hi, I'm a new member here!! I installed Lucid Lynx 10.04 because we use it at school, I've got problem since the beginning because when I restarted my pc to go from Ubuntu to WinXP or vice versa I got the error: no such device: hex number grub rescue> To run again the computer I needed to switch off it and then switch on again all the times. When I spoke of the problem with my teacher he told me to delet the partition with Ubuntu. So I did it!! In theory now I've got only WinXP on my PC but I don't know it because when I switch on it there is the same error with only one difference: when I switch off the computer it doesn't work, the error remains! Please help me! ps: sorry for the mistakes but I'm not English!

this is about the 4th time i've tried to reinstall linux ubuntu with no results. i am attempting to have a dual boot system with ubuntu and windows 7. i have a gateway lx series with an intel core 2 quad Q8200 processor, nvidia gt120 with 1gig of dedicated ram, 8 gigs of ram. after going through the entire installation process, after it tells me to restart and kicks out the CD, before i get to select os or anything, i get this message: error: no such device: 14150b0a-9486-4824-94c3-8d93cfa1afa4. grub rescue> What do i do? i want to have a decent computer to at least work with. i can load from the live cd again, but that's kind of a pain because none of my settings stay. Thanks in advance for your time guys.
