Several weeks ago I installed Ubuntu alongside Windows 10. Yesterday when starting my laptop I saw:



error: unknown filesystem.
Entering rescue mode...
grub rescue>


I booted from USB stick and did grub repair as written in this manual:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair



Boot-Repair Boot Info Summary: http://paste.ubuntu.com/26476661/



After repairing grub, I rebooted my PC and no options for choosing the OS were given, but Windows automatically started and did a long update!
Rebooting again, only Windows was starting (even if I hold the left Shift key).
Booting from USB and typing in the terminal sudo fdisk -l:

I can't remember in which partition Ubuntu was installed sda4 or sda5, but anyway as I understand it Ubuntu is gone?



This is output after running sudo blkid (if it helps).

Can someone please help me to recover my files, that were on Ubuntu (mainly .pdf books and some python scripts .py)?

  • Based on your boot info summary, it looks to me like you created a "bootable" live system on a VFAT partition at /dev/sdb1 (i.e. treated the partition as though it were a USB stick). Don't know how you would boot back into that though - sorry (it may be as simple as selecting /dev/sdb2 as the boot device from BIOS).

  • Based on your boot info summary, it looks to me like you created a "bootable" live system on a VFAT partition at /dev/sdb1 (i.e. treated the partition as though it were a USB stick).
