Title:
  Boot errors

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  After installing ubuntu14.04.1 onto a separate drive in my home built
  tower which I already had windows 8.1 pro install on another drive.
  Before the installation of ubuntu the windows 8.1 was working
  properly.

  This is not to say or imply that ubuntu is at fault in this process
  but instead, my lack of complete understanding of what was involved in
  the process. Subsequently, I've read lots of tutorials and
  question/answers on Ubuntu One. The most important of which I read
  only this morning at 3 AM. It said simply that you can't simply re-
  install ubuntu on an drive one problems have been encountered. At this
  point I'm using the drive that I originally installed the ubuntu onto
  with ubuntu installed and running somewhat errantly. To the point.

  At first I could still boot into windows 8.1, but there were problems
  with booting ubuntu. The boot menu then began to display with the
  windows bios boot option missing. However, I could still enter into
  the bios and select windows from there by selecting its drive. After
  trying to figure out what happened to the windows option then, I was
  no longer able to choose windows from the bios boot. I was at least
  able to boot into ubuntu with great difficulty. As it began to boot
  there were lots of fails and quit items displayed on the screen.

  Things have gone from bad to worse, as I attempted to fix the problem.
  Of course, I assumed the windows was still there on the original
  drive. I tried deleting the ubuntu OS and re-installing it and then
  things really went to hell in a hand basket. I am now at the point
  where, I've been able to re-install ubuntu, but can see the windows
  8.1 on either of the other drives that I have installing in the tower.

  I've used various of the linux sites to seek ways to recover from this
  disaster, but have not achieve good results. The xorg information that
  was sent from the latest boot is beyond my level of knowledge at this
  point. I would appreciate it very much if someone could walk me
  through the process of recovery. One of the errors messages "Found
  GPt, add bios-boot partition." Another was "Comreset failed error-16."
  These among many.

  Please excuse, my lack of detail in this matter I've grasping for
  straws believing that I could retrieve the system on my own. Given
  enough time I ultimately could, but at this point I'm putting up the
  "white flag."
