[QUOTE="danradu, post: 1239750, member: 202273"] Actually I did try without rEFIt. Still the same result except that I don't get to see the Tux logo - going straight into the black screen. I also installed Ubuntu 10.04LTS with the exact same results. What is that 'MBR contents: Boot Code: GRUB' telling me ? Does it see GRUB installed on a different (the main) partition too ? I think something is wrong with the main partition. No matter how I repartition the disk (swap before Linux, swap after Linux, different sizes) and what version of Ubuntu I install I end up with the same results. [/QUOTE]
