[SOLVED] Update issues
Posted: Sat Jun 18, 2011 10:00 am
Hi,
I did a dist-upgrade after quite a long time and got about 800MB worth of updates. I had grub from a different distro that used to host a few other distros besides LMDE. Everything went through fine with the updates except when i rebooted my machine the original grub was overwritten, most likely i chose to update grub during upgrade, don't remember it clearly. But now the display during grub is completely messed up, i can't see anything and screen is full of junk characters and subsequently Mint boots up. Initially usb mouse behaved weirdly, quite slow and very erratic but that got fixed with another reboot. However my original grub is still gone and i can't boot into any of the other distros. Tried installing burg but didn't had much success there.
Can anyone please suggest how to fix this issue.
Thanks.
