Hi still not working;

 power on boot - I get original error- Alert!!! dev/disk/by-UIDD.......

Boot from Grub 2 menu gives error - invalid magic number -you need to load kernel first.

Heres a copy of what i have done;

root@ubuntu:/boot#ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount -o bind /dev /mnt/dev
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$  sudo mount -o bind /sys /mnt/sys
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$  sudo mount -o bind /proc /mnt/proc

I have also tried putting 2.6.35-28-generic in this issue

cp initrd.img-2.6.35-28-generic initrd.img-2.6.35-28-generic.sav

I will try some more

Thanks for all your help..
