I have two disks 512 and 128 and i installed fedora on 128gb and i formatted the volume next day but when I start up I can still see some parts of fedora like fedora-workstation from dev/mapper/fedora and one more option I formatted the other disk completely but the boot menu of ubuntu still shows it , How do i remove them from the Ubuntu boot menu ? Help needed. I tried the other answers from stack overflow but they weren't of much use to my situation. Here's the output of sudo efibootmgr

Installing grub again will remove Fedora from the Ubuntu GRUB boot menu.

  1. Search for installed grub packages.

    apt list --installed | grep grub
    
  2. Reinstall all the grub packages and update grub.

    sudo apt install --reinstall package-name  
    sudo update-grub

    The above commands will reinstall and configure the grub packages and update grub. Replace package-name with the names of the grub packages from the results of step 1.

You can then run cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg to check that your Fedora entry has disappeared.

  • cannot the results of the step 1 automated in step 2? – PRATAP Jun 27 '20 at 13:58
  • Usually step 1 and the first command in step 2 are redundant, but I included them in case sudo update-grub by itself doesn't work. – karel Jun 27 '20 at 13:59
