[Bug 960092] Re: Latest update renders system unbootable "error: no such partition"

[misko]

Same error occured on my TravelMate 8481TG Notebook (equipped with a
64GB SSD and a 320 GB HDD). System was initially installed and worked
with oneiric, but refused to boot ("error: no such partition.") after
upgrading to precise pangoline.

Fixed it with a Boot-Repair LiveCD- the diagnostic output of Boot-Repair
can be found here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/957421/

Title:
  Latest update renders system unbootable "error: no such partition"

Status in “grub2” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Just did my daily 12.04 updates and ended up with an unbootable
  system:-

  error: no such partition.
  error: no such partition.
  error: no such partition.

  Press any key to continue...

  I had to chroot into the install to reinstall grub and the kernel to
  get it back to a bootable state.

  See attached photos.
