Which version of Mac OS X do you have?

Which version of Mac OS X do you have?

10.7.2 -->Lion

This was caused by a failed ubunto install.

Ah, trying to install Ubuntu, I see. Since Lion doesn't have an install disc, is your Recovery Partition still intact? If it is, then try booting from it, and running Disk Utility from there. (Hold +R at startup)

Recovery HD is fine.
I'll try.

Failed...

Just a thing.
Can i go to the recovery HD wipe the disk and install Lion again on a wiped disk?

Cant seem to do it any other way.

I've seen linux distro installs completely ******* with the partition mapping on macs (10.6 at least). As recommended, try from the recovery partition.

Otherwise, save your data and start from scratch.

Will that work?
