I updated kali 2018.2 using
# apt clean
# apt update
# apt upgrade
# apt dist-upgrade
# reboot
Now it boots to a black screen saying grub 2 minimal bash-like command
I can just type exit and it will either boot into grub and load normally, or I have to type exit, wait for it to reload the grub minimal bash-like command screen and type exit again and it loads normally.
So with this being said I can still fully boot into kali without issue, I just want to get rid of this screen, any suggestions?
I don't dual boot, everything I've found on this topic is about a windows install breaking grub, I only run Kali 2018.2 on this laptop
I've tried as follows from this link
mount /dev/sda3 /mnt
But I get
mount: /mnt: unknown filesystem type 'swap'.
So I tried
mount /dev/sda /mnt
And it mounts normally without issue
I continue with the commands as follows
mount ?bind /dev /mnt/dev
mount ?bind /dev/pts /mnt/dev/pts
mount ?bind /proc /mnt/proc
mount ?bind /sys /mnt/sys
chroot /mnt
grub-install /dev/sda
And this is where I get
"Installing for x86_64-efi platform."
"grub-install: error: cannot find EFI directory"
And now I'm kind of at a loss and everything I've been looking up is telling me this has something to do with a Windows install but I don't even have windows on this, not really sure what's going on here.
Any suggestions?
