Hi Swarf,

use "Boot repair" to fix the bootloader, you shouldn't install Grub to sdb1 but only to sda1 !!!!:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair

Download and create a disk then go to advanced options and check it out!!.

You can try recovery from the live CD:

This is old but may help:

Hi Swarf,

I do know that you know but I was trying to help anyone else reading this thread, if you look at the pic:

: ubuntu1104installation-large_004.jpg (121.16 KiB)

where it states "Device for bootloader", there are 2 arrows on the right, did you check to see if you had another option there because there should be at least 2 options when you click on the arrow, either saying: dev/sda or dev/sdb.........!!.

Regards Wolfman
