when I was installing 18.04 on my laptop grub installation failed , I know there is a bug to be fixed but can it be fixed on the live session ? or on reboot from the grub prompt?



EDIT: how about I install an older version and upgrade ? does that crash grub as well?

  • My recommendation is that you make a live disk of Boot-Repair CD and have it fix the grub install. There is something odd about the grub shipping with 18.04. Have seen that on a few installs. Nothing specific to add to your situation.
