8.04 installed with wubi under Xp; no longer boots up
I have Ubuntu 8.04 installed using wubi under MSWindows XP.
I allowed a MS Xp security patch to be installed on Friday.
Since then, Ubuntu will not boot up.
When I selece Ubuntu from the boot menu, I get the following:
Try(hd0,0): NTFS5: 3
Try(hd0,1): invalid or null
Try(hd0,2): invalid or null
Try(hd0,3): invalid or null
Try(fd0): invalid or null
Error: Cannot find GRLDR in all devices. Press Ctl+Alt+Del to restart
I have tried to use "chkdsk C: /r" several times.
After reboot and chkdsk completes and another reboot,
I get the same message as before.
The report is a "clean check" with no problems.
Partial contents of C: include
...
C:\wubi
C:\boot.ini
C:\grldr
C:\wubi\boot
C:\wubi\boot\grub
C:\wubi\

C:\wubi\disks
C:\wubi\docs

C:\wubi\logs

...
boot.ini contains

c:\grldr="Ubuntu"
What now?
