Related. I actually thought it was a sun related thing, like a solar flare, in the comic. Turns out it was butterflies.

Achievement unlocked.

If you can fix it you unlock another one. If you manage to boot the system without using a rescue USB pen you unlock another one.

Once level up enough you’ll be writing a GRUB replacement yourself. Now that would be a massive achievement.

Pretty unhelpful responses so far. Enter

exit

to exit the current screen and return to a selection of installed OS/Kernels. You should be able to boot normally from there on. Once logged in, try

update-grub

which should repair your bootloader config.

Note: If update-grub isn’t present, it’s fine as it’s basically just a short script for grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Rules

  • Posts must be relevant to operating systems running the Linux kernel. GNU/Linux or otherwise.
  • No misinformation
  • No NSFW content
  • No hate speech, bigotry, etc
