I now see this when i boot up. I just restarted my pc and now i get this.
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.
You broke grub
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.
Eventually Linus himself will come and personally re-write your cfg file for you
Once level up enough you’ll be writing a GRUB replacement yourself. Now that would be a massive achievement.
Is that the platinum trophy?
Dont forget to play around with grub while its like this. Tab completion works great, try ‘(’ the press tab to maybe see your disks as grub sees them. I think help lists commands and most of them are harmless.

Solar eclipse clearly.
Solar eclipse-caused bit flip.
Related. I actually thought it was a sun related thing, like a solar flare, in the comic. Turns out it was butterflies.
It isn’t booting a kernel, you’re in the bootloader.
How do i get it to load the kernal
Sheer hope, and a warrior’s bravery
It depends, is this a new install? Did you just update something?
Type “ls” to see what it could find?
Memdisk proc hd0 hd1 hd1gpt1 hdgpt2 hdgpt3
Seems at least it can see the harddisks. May be look for the boot directory with “ls (hdx, xxx)” and see if anything can be used?
I think I remember that a non geek friend of mine had good luck with this for fixing their Grub : https://www.supergrubdisk.org

Some good tips on this thread, saved for later.
