Same thing happened to my Dell Studio 17 a couple of months ago. I fixed Grub 2 with sudo mount /dev/sda5 /mnt sudo mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev sudo mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc sudo chroot /mnt grub-install /dev/sda exit sudo umount /mnt/dev sudo umount /mnt/proc sudo umount /mnt sudo reboot I've been able to go back and forth between Windows 7 64-bit and Ubuntu 9.10 64-bit since then, so I thought it was just new-laptop shakedown. But today I was in Windows looking at Dell DataSafe Local Backup (didn't use it to burn a backup disk, just opened it and looked at some of the tools) and when I rebooted... Grub loading... the symbol ' a rei[upsidedown triangle]?8' not found Aborted. Press any key to exit. I'm going to uninstall Dell DataSafe the very next time I boot Windows. If anyone uninstalls it and continues to get this error PLEASE let us know. Thanks! -- Grub loading. The symbol ' ' not found. Aborted.
