Code: Select all
sudo mount /dev/sda3 /mnt
sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot/efi
for i in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /run; do sudo mount -B $i /mnt$i; done
sudo chroot /mnt
but when I run chroot /mnt
or chroot /mnt /usr/bin/bash

I get the error: chroot: failed to run command ‘/bin/bash’: No such file or directory

revert your chroot and try this:

Code: Select all

sudo chroot-rescue-scan

to add: Your QSI from MX-23 LiveUSB indicates it was booted in
Boot Mode: BIOS (legacy, CSM, MBR)
Which means you cannot run "grub-install" within the chroot in order to
create a new efi-grub-loader onto the ESP, (mounted on /boot/efi).
You need to boot within UEFI-boot mode with the LiveUSB to create
a new efi-grub bootloader and "install" GRUB onto the ESP.

How can I install the grub bootloader properly now?

On MX-23 Live USB with UEFI boot mode:
* do unmount all partitions you manually mounted
* run

Code: Select all

sudo chroot-rescue-scan

If the installed system was found and listed select the found
you'll get a chroot-terminal:

run in chroot terminal

Code: Select all

grub-install --force-extra-removable --target=x86_64-efi --bootloader-id=MX23 --recheck --efi-directory=/boot/efi

next update grub config, which provides the grub menu:

Code: Select all

update-grub

Any error copy and paste the command and any error messages:
Als check any old entries in NVRAM and on the ESP
Check nvram:

Code: Select all

efibootmgr -v

Check ESP:

Code: Select all

find /boot/efi -ls

Copy / paste the command text output somewhere.
And in case the system would still not boot properly,
post those texts also.
Leave chroot with exit or Ctrl+d
reboot with some luck into the new system.

Thank you, no error so far.
It shows MX19 as I already upgraded from MX19 to MX21 before.
So should I try a reboot without usb?

I just rebooted, got the same error message like in my first post.

... Or, did you upgrade from 21 which was upgraded from 19 ?

Somewhere with you upgrade excersice from MX19
you may have overlooked an install error, indicated by the line
"4 not fully installed or removed."

which may be have left over. So not sure how to fix this "mess".
Perhaps, as already requested, boot with MX LiveUSB -> Boot Rescue -> efi GRUB loader
and select MX23 efiLoader.

#20 Post by **Adlermania** » Sun Sep 17, 2023 7:36 am

Yes I upgraded from MX19 to 21, over one year before, everything worked fine, and now from 21 to 23.
I think I rebooted already with all these errors.
