My Asus laptop has a 32GB eMMC with Windows 10 preinstalled. I wish to replace it with Lubuntu for the system only has 2GB RAM, and a dual core 2.1GHz CPU.

Install to the eMMC failed twice, so I bought an 80GB HDD, mounted it in the PC's expansion bay, and installed Lubuntu there. However, installing alongside Windows sends me to a GRUB2 error message, as does partitioning manually, which I tried twice.

I can't solve it by searching the partitions for the boot directory, for ls in the GRUB menu only lists the filesystem type.

    Please take pictures of the GRUB2 error screen, as well as the result of ls, then click on https://askubuntu.com/posts/1054300/edit and add the result to your original post. – K7AAY Jul 11 '18 at 18:59

  • https://pastebin.com and other similar sites https://alternativeto.net/software/pastebin/ allow you to upload pictures; they will assign a URL address you can add to the original question so you can make the pictures available without having to wait for reputation to arrive. – K7AAY Jul 11 '18 at 20:55

  • To see the files, use ls (hd0,1)/ etc, i.e. put a / at the end. – sourcejedi Jul 12 '18 at 09:19
  • Thank you I was able to boot into the system and I installed the grub again as said . But when I restarted the system I got the same problem again. – zojo Jul 12 '18 at 14:30
  • I mean from the solution that " oldfred " gave the link to . So is there a way to get the system to do it by it self every time ? – zojo Jul 12 '18 at 14:44
