[Trisquel-users] Re : Trisquel 6: updates break GRUB
Where exactly are you stuck? Here are various ways to fix Trisquel from a live system: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing#Fixing_a_Broken_System I would personally go the 'chroot' way because it is what I have always done (and it reminds me of my installation of Gentoo some 12 years ago): https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing#via_ChRoot One you get a terminal in the installed system, do what quidam wrote: https://trisquel.info/fr/forum/trisquel-6-updates-break-grub#comment-61807 Notice that 'update-grub' is a command!
[Trisquel-users] Re : Trisquel 6: updates break GRUB
To exit the 'chroot' you can use the 'exit' command. I guess Ctrl+D would work as well. Anyway, as long as you waited for the return of the prompt after firing 'update-grub', you could as well abruptly reboot like you did. Since it did not work, could you check that the occurrences of "--unrestricted" were really erased from /boot/grub/grub.cfg?

The file displayed upon executing the sed command. My bad. I forgot to write the option "-i" that allows to actually edit the file (rather than showing the result on the standard output and letting the file untouched): $ sudo sed -i 's/--unrestricted//g' /boot/grub/grub.cfg Sorry about that. I am correcting my original instructions right now. You really need to fire 'sudo update-grub' after altering GRUB's configuration.

Booting "by hand" and letting APT do the job is another way to go. This time I am not even sure you need to execute 'sudo update-grub': 'apt-get' has probably executed it for you (command called from a post-processing script). Anyway, it does not hurt.
