Hello everyone I have recently installed ubuntu on my dos machine and when the installation got finished it told me to restart.

But after restarting the system is not booting into ubuntu automatically, instead i get this grub screen

I have tried other solution also but in that they select linux kernel in /boot folder

But i cant find that file either

Can someone please help me. I am attaching my screenshot and all the file contents i found

enter image description here

  • Listen you answered your question by editing your question.. It would be better if you answer this question. Cause, others may face the issue also. So, it would be better if you answer this question rather than editing question...! –  Apr 14 '21 at 12:52

  • In addition, can you please transcribe the text of your screenshot in to text? Not all our users can view images (some are visually impaired, and others might be accessing the site from a pure text system as their main graphical system is down and they are trying to find a way to fix it...) You can find help on Markdown formatting codes to format the text via the various "Help" links. – C. M. Apr 22 '21 at 10:10

set
set boot=(hd0,msdos6)
set prefix=(hd0,msdos6)/boot/grub
insmod

If insmod doesn't work than try

insmod nomal
reboot

You can read my question also. Grub rescue error

As you said in a comment that you have bootable USB. Linux Mint is a community-driven Linux distribution based on Ubuntu. Visit the link.

Update grub loader

sudo update-grub

For Fedora, PacketLinux or CentOS

sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

  1. Then verify which disk was your boot disk in Linux. To do so a quick way is to run command:

    df -l

Install grub in a specific disk(I don't remember what its called)

sudo grub-install /dev/sda

Then, reboot... Now, check that are you having the issue anymore..?

[SOLUTION]: I have solved this issue and my ubuntu is working properly now the problem was that ubuntu was not able to find proper boot location hence it showed grub screen at the start

The problem was i think that when i installed ubuntu with erase data and install fresh option. the ubuntu referred old partitions hence was not properly pointing to the exact boot location

Then i installed ubuntu again but with selecting something else option (this option allows us to manually setup partition and delete old if we have any)

follow this youtube intallation tutorial if you are stuck in this screen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EOCQ9hEP8FM&t=202s

hope this helps
