如何使用Ubuntu U盘启动盘修复更新后无法启动系统的问题

Answer 1

首先，当然是准备一个1G以上容量的U盘，用来制作可启动U盘；
其次，到官网上下载Ubuntu desktop镜像文件。Ubuntu Desktop镜像一般700多兆，从而可以把它写到1G大的U盘上，可以从Ubuntu官网下载10.4的镜像文件。
用UltraISO将其写入U盘，制作成可启动的U盘。自作完成后重启电脑，选择从U盘启动。
由于你写入U盘的实际上是个像光盘一样的Ubuntu安装盘，所以进入U盘Ubuntu后，你可以选择不安装而直接试用体验Ubuntu，这也是本方法的关键所在，利用LiveCD，我们可以暂时进入系统，借以修复原有系统！
进入Ubuntu系统后，启动命令终端，输入如下指令，在线安装lilo和mbr：

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install lilo

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$

安装过程中，会得到如下lilo的配置提示，按OK就行了：
Package configuration
┌───────────────────────────┤ Configuring lilo ├────────────────────────────┐
│ │
│ LILO configuration │
│ │
│ It seems to be your first LILO installation. It is absolutely necessary │
│ to run liloconfig(8) when you complete this process and execute │
│ /sbin/lilo after this. │
│ │
│ LILO won't work if you don't do this. │
│ │
│ <Ok> │
│ │
└───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

然后使用lilo修复系统：
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo lilo -M /dev/sda mbr
Backup copy of /dev/sda in /boot/boot.0800
The Master Boot Record of /dev/sda has been updated.
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$

修复完成，重启系统：
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo -s -H
root@ubuntu:/home/ubuntu# reboot
OK了，相信重启后选择进入系统的画面就出现了，是不是很简单？
