I had Xubuntu installed on my laptop on harddrive /dev/sda on partition /dev/sda1.
Something bad happened and when I restarted my laptop black screen appeared with
"kernel panic" message.
So I decided to install Lubuntu from live CD. I installed it on /dev/sda5 (it has 6 GB size).
It was initially swap partition, but I decided that I don't need to have swap partition because I have 2 GB RAM.
So, I installed Lubuntu without problems.
After restart a black screen with the following message appeared:
no such partition
grub rescue>
So I booted again from live CD and changed in fdisk the boot partition to /dev/sda5. After restart I only can see grub command line.
fdisk -l shows

Could you advise me how to repair Grub to be able to boot to /dev/sda5 with Lubuntu?
thank you
