Title: Stuck at grub terminal
Post by: Raja Cobra on Oct 10, 2023, 02:31 AM
Hi,

I am stuck at the grub terminal when I start the machine

23.04
full disk encryption
I cannot remember changing anything when I turned off the machine yesterday and don't remember any error messages or anything
I am not prompted for password to decrypt the drive first


Tried without success

timeshift back up from a couple of months ago which restored but with the same result stuck at grub terminal
https://askubuntu.com/a/1175786/1722689 where it asks to find a grub directory and I cannot find it
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ma...roubleshooting and get stuck sudo mount /dev/mapper/system-root /mnt/root and I get mount: /mnt/root: special device /dev/mapper/system-root dot not exist


Is there anything I can do besides reinstall?

fwiw just overwhelmed with it all, I am ill, no ADHD medication due to the shortages, the machine not working means I cannot go to work who don't have time to help me either, signing up for the forum has been difficult with the above which is why I have the stupid username as the form kept complaining, everything feels just punishing today.
