Hi All
Running Release preview and experienced the following:-
On booting I think it was doing an update the system crashed.
Rebooted and then went into failed to boot
attempting to repair
This was on an external esata drive so I could hear what was going on:-
System spent some 25 minutes with the small graphic circle spinning
and either reading or writing to the drive, it finally stopped and said it
failed to repair try advanced options or close down.
Not sure of what would happen I closed down to remove 4 other drives for safety.
These are individual, I dont dual boot, tested each and they booted ok. Removed drives again
Plugged win8 drive back in ready to try advanced options but lo and behold
it booted up successfully.
Anybody else experienced this.
