I have new huawei D15 laptop that I succesffully dual-booted with Win11 and Ubuntu 22.04. I have been using it for about a week, installing apps, configuring networks, etc..
Problem 1
This morning, I booted my computer and found that grub was missing.
At boot I got the 'minimal BASH like line editing is supported' error and decided to boot from LiveUSB and use boot-repair to solve the problem.
Problem 2
Upon booting from LiveUSB and running boot-repair, I discovered that the boot-repair "Recommended Repairs" option was completely missing.
Problem 3
So I opened gparted and discovered that my ubuntu partition, somehow has a completely unknown file system

More info
Any suggestion to repair the file system of my ubuntu partition I'd rather not loose the set-up progress that I have made.
thanks
