You need to provide information about your system posting back inxi -Fxxxzr result. Also post back mokutil --sb-state result. There is no such LM 20.4 thing (and never will be). Last Mint edition is LM 20.2 (based on Ubuntu 20.04), next will be LM 20.3 (also based on Ubuntu 20.04) and then, most pro...

Since LM 19.2 Release, once you have created an USB Live with any of those ISO files, you can find Boot Repair in Menu>Administration>Boot Repair or, as you already said, running boot-repair from terminal. :wink:

Re: cant boot cinermon (windows interfearing)

It looks like Linux Mint 19.X Cinnamon is installed alongside Windows XP in first disk (BIOS mode of course). I assume you have tried to boot with both disk options in boot menu and now you can only boot Window choosing first disk option (after repairing windows boot??). Isn't it? https://i.ibb.co/t...

I doubt it was a SATA controller problem (if set to RAID but no array created) as gparted doesn't show a RAID volume with partitions but a disk with partitions in your case. Disk forming RAID array is not accesed directly nor by Mint isntaller neither by gparted. As it has no MBR it wont show /dev/s...
