Hi,
I'm sure this has been posted before, but I can't seem to find a solution.
Basically, I have a dual-boot system with WinVista and Ubuntu. I resized the Windows partition, and all the files exist and are accessible from Ubuntu. However when I try to boot, it gives me an error along the lines of "autochk not found - skipping AUTOCHECK", then reboots, and the whole process happens again.

- Typing find /media/sda4 -iname "autochk.exe" from Ubuntu. This confirmed that the autochk.exe file did exist.
- Doing a ClamTK virus scan from Ubuntu. The only real result was:
