    won't boot after install, grub error

    I bought a used laptop, put in a bigger hard drive that previously had dual boot XP and Kubuntu 10.04. I downloaded 10.04.1 and installed it, telling it to use the whole disk. The install went fine and when I rebooted, it came up to a grub rescue screen.
    I then used gparted, deleted all partitions and tried the install again. When I rebooted it gave a out of disk error and was at a grub prompt.
    I tried installing 10.04 and it installed fine, then on reboot it gave a out of disk error.
    What do I need to do?

    It is a dell 6000 laptop.

    I installed 10.10 beta and it's working now. I would rather have the production instead of beta though.
