My previous question How to install extlinux on Ubuntu 19.10? was closed as a duplicate with a link to similar topics. But there I did not find a solution to my problem. I apologize, but I have to ask for help again.

The software has booted. The next step was to install the bootloader. Detected that the Syslinux folder is located in / usr / lib / syslinux. Extlinux folder is not at all. To install the bootloader gave the command: sudo syslinux --install / boot / syslinux (the folder / boot / syslinux was created earlier) Error: sudo: / usr / lib / syslinux: command not found

He gave the command to copy the boot sector to a USB flash drive: dd if = / usr / lib / syslinux / mbr.bin of = / dev / sdd Again the error: dd: failed to open '/usr/lib/syslinux/mbr.bin': No such file or directory.

Tell me, please, what am I doing wrong?

  • "Command not found" implies that you have not yet installed the minimum software required for the task. For example, did you successfully install the extlinux package? Your previous question was closed with a link to instructions to how to enable the universe repository so that you could install the correct packages, not 'similar topics'. – user535733 Jan 06 '20 at 17:17
  • Yes I did. Outwardly, everything was fine. There were no errors. Do you think the extlinux folder is missing due to my error? Okay, I'll try to repeat. – kservice Jan 06 '20 at 17:37
  • After running sudo extlinux --install /boot/extlinux the Not a directory /boot/extlinux error message has changed. In fact, there is such a directory. – karel Jan 07 '20 at 04:07
