Recently I've had some audio issues with Ubuntu (using precise), and in the process of trying to resolve that I ran a dist-upgrade. Everything went just fine, and the sound seemed good, until I rebooted my machine for the first time since the dist-upgrade.

All I see now in the Grub menu at startup is memtest86+, another memtest variant, and Windows 7. It's not showing any of the linux kernels that Ubuntu is running on.

I am attaching my bootinfoscript:

=================== Repair blockers
64bits detected. Please use this software in a 64bits session. (Please use Ubuntu-Secure-Remix-64bits (www.sourceforge.net/p/ubuntu-secured) which contains a 64bits-compatible version of this software.) This will enable this feature.
=================== Final advice in case of recommended repair


The boot files of [Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS] are far from the start of the disk. Your BIOS may not detect them. You may want to retry after creating a /boot partition (EXT4, >200MB, start of the disk). This can be performed via tools such as gParted. Then select this partition via the [Separate /boot partition:] option of [Boot Repair]. (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootPartition)

=================== Default settings
Recommended-Repair
This setting would reinstall the grub2 of sda6 into the MBR of sda, using the following options:     kernel-purge
Additional repair would be performed: unhide-bootmenu-10s   fix-windows-boot

=================== Settings chosen by the user
Boot-Info
This setting will not act on the MBR.

Any help would be great, I'm really missing Ubuntu (hate being stuck in the Windows world).
