Earlier I had a HDD with ubuntu and windows on dual-boot. I replaced it with SSD and tried to install ubuntu, which gave me errors due to grub and said the OS would be unbootable.

Then to fix this I used boot-repair, which generated this report(http://paste2.org/8z0GLGCC) with an error in the end. enter image description here

What do I know?

You replaced HDD with SSD and wanted to repair what? If the SSD was empty, there is nothing to repair! Make sure you have the correct Ubuntu ISO file (probably amd64) and make sure your SSD has a GPT partition scheme. GRUB is ussually installed at the beginning of the (first) disk. – ipse lute Oct 25 '16 at 9:21
    
@ipselute thanks for the reply! How can I make sure the SD has GPT partition scheme? – Abhishek Bhatia Oct 25 '16 at 9:27
    
Your drive has GPT partition scheme. We can see that in boot-info summary. Install looks clean. the error at the end is not relevant.Can you boot after the repair? – mook765 Oct 25 '16 at 9:29
    
But my os installation was unsuccessful itself. – Abhishek Bhatia Oct 25 '16 at 9:45
    
@AbhishekBhatia Did you make sure to first format the SSD, then install? I don't see an issue here. Also, you could buy an HDD cloner adapter and clone the data off your HDD and put it on your SSD. – negusp Oct 25 '16 at 12:29
