Ubuntu 9.10 totally crashed grub cannot boot after upgrade
i use ubuntu 9.10 on my laptop acer extensa 5630 since the release of the ubuntu 9.10. it worked very well. but today itself it crashed and cannot even load ubuntu log in screen. it says "Failed to boot default entries. Press any key to continue..."
most recently i updated the ubuntu as usual. but it updated partially and i installed updates as it is (its size was 500-550 MB). when it installing it said "Ubuntu Desktop cannot upgrade" and kept asking to update again and again. when trying to go to language support it said problem with software package index. as the solution it said to run "sudo apt-get install -f" and i did same. then in the terminal it show removing all the applications that i installed. after finishing that i tried to access my home folder and partitions. it said no programme associated with it. and cannot even restart and shut down. then i turned off the laptop using power switch. now it totally dead. pls help me. my everything in that laptop. pls help.
