Sounds like grub didn't actually load properly. You'll need to use a live CD to get back in. Once in, chroot to the real system and run grub-install with the correct HD settings (most often is hd0:0 but Ubuntu uses the new grub2 so that changed to hd1:0 - drives number from 1 but partitions number from 0 - thanks GNU!)<br>

'invalid option' from grub, but all booted fine.<br>
<br>
Upgrade from Maverick 10.10 to Natty 11.04 and upon reboot, gets as far<br>
as the grub prompt and that's it.<br>
<br>
I don't have extensive experience with grub.<br>
<br>
Typing boot at the grub menu returns: no kernel loaded.<br>
<br>
Suggestions?<br>
