The other day, I decided that, in addition to Ubuntu, I'd like to try ElementaryOS. So, I made another partition, and installed on that partition (sda5). In the installer, there was a box that said to choose the bootloader installation drive. So, I picked sda6 (my Ubuntu partition) so that it would merge with my existing grub. Now, I had no idea if this would work, but it seemed like it would make sense.
Anyways, it didn't work, and that's why I'm here. My computer default boots to Windows (that is, if I don't do anything when I press the power button, it'll boot to Windows). I want to keep this functionality. Normally, I would go and select the boot device, and then grub would come up and I could boot Ubuntu. So, I want to also be able to select ElementaryOS instead of Ubuntu. However, when I select the boot device that used to give me grub, it says error: file '/boot/grub/i386-pc/normal.mod' not found
and shows me the grub rescue prompt (an image is below). Now, I figured out how to boot back into ubuntu. I have to type this:
set root=(hd0,gpt6)
set prefix=(hd0,gpt6)/boot/grub
insmod normal
normal
and it takes me back to my grub screen where I can pick Ubuntu. How can I make it so that I don't have to go through the grub rescue prompt, and put ElementaryOS on the grub menu. Furthermore, I DO NOT want grub to replace the default bootloader that boots Windows if I don't press anything.
Thanks, and sorry if this is badly explained. I'll be happy to clarify. The image of the grub prompt is below:
