I installed ubuntu,but when I restarted my machine it shows:

error: file '/boot/grub/i386-pc/normal.mod' not found
grub rescue>

I tried running boot-repair from live cd here is the dump of that: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1411870/

Add a boot partition in something else mode. In mount point type /boot/efi and select FAT32 as the partition type. Allocate around 500MB and this is the solution worked for me.

I encounter with this several times, I guess you didn't leave a room for /boot

My solution is that you should reinstall it (while you should rewrite the U disk or you will just goto the same place)
I didn't know how to rescue the grub, I think it's kind of complex, so just reinstall it and it won't take much time, and remember leave a room /boot
not a big deal,take it easy and hope that I could help.
