I tried to install mint, dual boot with windows 10, I used advanced partition option because I have ssd and hd. I put the grub in bios, but when trying to boot goes straight to windows boot recovery. I tried to reinstall grub by chroot and it didn't help.
That's my fstab

Re: Grub won't show up after install
Well it looks like it's an efi system, rather than an older MBR system. I wouldn't know what can be done from the Windows recovery, but from a Mint USB live boot you can probably follow the instructions here:

But to be sure it installs to the efi partition, rather than this:
I think I might try:
just to be absolutely sure it recognizes the efi partition and doesn't try to install an MBR. The only significance of opt and mnt here are that they are empty directories in the live boot that make for convenient places to mount the drives you need to install to.

But to be sure it installs to the efi partition, rather than this:
Code: Select all
sudo mount /dev/sda4 /mnt
sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sda
Code: Select all
sudo mount /dev/sda1 /opt
sudo mount /dev/sda4 /mnt
sudo grub-install --efi-directory=/opt --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sda
