initramfs error while installing ubuntu with windows

yesterday you guy's were worried about this error, so got resolution of that :)
First let me explain when we get this error.
when you boot you system and after selecting ubuntu screen goes black with this error
initramfs (type help for list of commands)
this error comes up when the other OS on system is not closed (shut down) correctly, as we all know the basic HDD format for linux is ext3 but in case when we install ubuntu from wubi it is installed on ntfs only (default c:) so this error comes up whenever previos OS (windows) on NTFS is not closed properly.
To get rid of this error reboot your system and press F8 for OS Choice Menu from there select windows and go for Boot Windows Normally after windows is loded, please unplug all USB devices connected (if any) like External Hard Drive, USB Card Reader, Webcam etc. by safely remove hardware option. Now shut down windows properly.
Now you just need to boot ubuntu normally and it should load properly.
Feedback is welcome :)
