Note that the grub works just fine in boot and Ubuntu starts normally. It is only the updates that do not work anymore.



I'm stuck and would hate to re-install - help needed!

          I got some very good help on other forums and used the BootInfo tools to get more information about the grub and boot



          https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Info



          From the BootInfo report it turned out that /boot/efi was commented out in the file /sda6/etc/fstab:



          # /boot/efi was on /dev/sda2 during installation
          # UUID=EE10-4B61 /boot/efi vfat defaults 0 1


          The problem was solved by commenting out the UUID ... /boot/efi row in fstab.
