yesterday I installed Ubuntu 17.04 alongside windows. When I chose to boot ubuntu I could choose between ubuntu and windows in menu. But today when I booted into ubuntu, instead of menu I went to grub command line.

When I try ls there is no directory containing linux booting files. Do I have to reinstall ubuntu? What will happen with a space that was allocated for the first installation?

Thanks

Did Win10 update? the Windows 10 Creators update deletes Linux partitions.

Boot a LiveCD or similar media. testdisk shoud be installed. If not type `sudo apt-get install testdisk'

Then use `testdisk to recover the deleted partitions.

In most cases the recovery is all that is needed for a normal boot.
