I had my Acer Aspire One netbook set up to dual boot with ubuntu and windows 7. For some reason or reasons unknown windows did an automatic checkdisk thing and completely messed up the dual boot so that all I get when I select ubuntu is a console screen with 'grub>'. What I want to know is how can I recover my photos from the ubuntu partition before I do a complete reinstall (probably without windows).<br>
<br>
Any help appreciated.<br>
