I wiped my old Ubuntu OS and installed Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (alongside Windows 10) from a USB device to replace it. When I first booted into it after installation, the GRUB menu did not load, but it opened the GRUB CLI instead. I've learned that this is due to GRUB not finding the root file system. I followed this tutorial to configure GRUB from its CLI. Everything went alright and I was able to boot into Ubuntu. After successfully running sudo update-grub
and sudo grub-install /dev/nvme0n1
and rebooting, GRUB still opened the CLI instead of loading the menu like it should. I have no idea why GRUB doesn't remember these configurations. Is there a way to manually change the files so that the boot menu is loaded correctly?
If it helps, this is how my partitions look like:
