#1410 — GRUB Removed by Update on Friday 2-2-24

[Multipart message — attachments visible in raw view] — view raw

Hi folks,

     I updated my PC, running Debian Testing AKA "Trixie" on Friday and 
haven't been able to boot into Debian ever since. I can tell that I need 
to reinstall GRUB, but I'm having trouble with the instructions on the 
Debian page for reinstalling GRUB 
<https://wiki.debian.org/GrubEFIReinstall#Using_A_Live_CD.2FUSB_To_Fix_Your_Current_System>. 
It sounds like I'm supposed to do the /efi=runtime/ boot option and also 
mount the EFI variables, but when I try to mount the EFI variables, GRUB 
says it can't do that.

Is it possible to do the boot option and mount the EFI variables in the 
live image's menu before having it boot into Debian or should I just do 
the boot option, boot into Debian and then mount the EFI variables?

yes those grub booting mistakes might be nasty but:
1. you do not have to reinstall grub just the settings of it
2. try to use the grub boot console to get in
3. once you get in update your grub config
ps: i would enable bios legacy mode if i were you

yours
