But dont ask me how to fix it! - I have NO IDEA how Ubuntu works... I was only trained on DOS and WINDOWS!
I think maybe that I should delete this partition and re-install UBUNTU?
BTW - I tried WINDOWS7 and it is fantastic! - for me - to have a "SELF-REPAIR MODE upon rebooting out of a corrupted OS, is absolutely MARVELOUS! - and I am SURE that it could not be TOO HARD for Ubuntu to make one SIMILAR!
