Ubuntu – No init start up error

10.10bootgrub2startup

I'm running Ubuntu on a dual boot with Windows Vista, I've just gone to boot up as usual in to Ubuntu and I have this error

No init found. Try passing init= bootarg.

Busybox v1.15.3 (Ubuntu 1:1.15.3-1ubuntu5) built-in shell
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

(initramfs)

This happens after I select Ubuntu from the Grub menu,

any help would be great. 🙂

Boot into the live CD and try repairing it with the following command:

sudo fsck /dev/sda1

The sda1 might be vary for you sometimes.If you are not sure on the name of your drive then run gparted.It should list the name of the drive.Just replace the sda1 with the name of your drive. Let me know if this helps you. :)

You can boot into a rescue console by starting your computer from a live cd and selecting "Rescue a broken system" from the menu.
