Repair Grumb

Show all headers | View raw

I have Stretch installed  on sda1 and Buster installed on sdd1 on my 
64bit Linux platform.

Unfortunately, grub on sdd1 became corrupted and the boot process fails 
after Buster is selected. Fortunately, the Stretch grub still boots the 
system.  Also, I can access the Buster install on sdd1 without any problems

At this point I have downloaded  the Boot Repair dist from Soourceforge 
-boot-repair-disk-64bit.iso and burned it to a DVD. The repair disk 
boots without any problems.  However, I am a bit hesitant to use the 
repair tool.  If I select sdd1 as the location for the repair in the 
advanced tab is there any danger of corrupting the Stretch grub on sda1?

Of course, the safest thing would be to just reinstall Buster on sdd1. I 
hav already backed up the files.

Comments and guidance will be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
