Can't run Ubuntu

Herr.Chef · 11-24-2018, 10:48 AM

To also try Ubuntu i did install it completely, however when i reboot i didn't show the Option to which Distro i wanna use, instead it just run Bodhi directly, is there a possibility to solve this? Thank You!

What bootloader does Bodhi use ?

If Grub2, then post /boot/grub/grub.cfg

and

fdisk -l

i would also like to see the content of /etc/default/grub.
also, can you say which distro's grub is currently responsible?
weren't you asked during ubuntu installation, if and how you want to install grub???
do you see any grub menu at all, or does it go straight to a bootup splash screen?
in other words, does early boot look different now, after you installed ubuntu?

If you mean you installed Ubuntu to a partition probably ubuntus version of grub was installed to the wrong location. What you need to do is from Bodhi run:

Code:

sudo update-grub

That should detect all Operating systems installed on your hard drive and update grub accordingly.

Now reboot and Wait until the UEFI/BIOS has finished loading, or has almost finished and press and hold the Shift key, which will bring up the GNU GRUB menu. select the OS you wish to boot.
