First :
Insert Ubuntu Boot cd and click on “Try Ubuntu without any change to your computer”
After booting open the terminal and run
sudo fdisk -l
Now you need to create mount directory coz your booting off the live cd, the directory doesn’t really get created anywhere.
sudo mkdir /media/sda1
Now you need to mount
sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1
Now you need to run chroot.
