Few days before, I tried to upgrade ubunu12.04 to ubuntu 14.04. But because of low space it stopped in the middle. Then after 2 days, my speakers stopped working in ubunu12.04. So, I thought some files might have changed during upgrade and not cleared again. So, I made enough space and then upgraded ubuntu from 12.04 to 14.04. But during installation, it asked for restart after completeing all processes, but couldn't restart. Instead it put me to a busybox. And it got stuck there. The error says:
BusyBox 1.21.1 (Ubuntu 1:1.21.0 - 1ubuntu1) built in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a lit of built-in commands.
(initramfs)
I looked up this error on net. And I tried to apply my debugging skils, which are trust me very weird. So, after going through chain of links I came across a thread, from where I downloaded a bootinfoscript and ran it on my pc. Its output can be seen below in bold below. But before that I would like to tell that I have a windows 7 on my pc and its not working because of some hardware memory malfunctioning. I will get it repaired next month when i got enough cash. Now, the output of the script:
Boot Info Script 0.61 [1 April 2012]

Now, I don't know what to do further because I have tried other methods from threads like (the one link that found most promising:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1291280&page=2
I have compared with other outputs, but comprehending it and what to do further is something that I caot understand.
Regarding PC, I am using DELL INSPIRON N5050 series with 3GB RAM and 500 GB HDD. (i3 processor with x86 architecture).
Please guys help me. What should I do next now in order to boot ubuntu 14.04 successfully. I am posting this script using Live Ubuntu USB.
Thanks a lot for the help. Admirations and Graces to you for that.
