Grub Just Redirects to Windows
This Might Be Confusing But Let Me Explain. I reinstalled Elementary OS because It had wireless adapter bug issue (fixed it). So After Installing EOS again I still see the GRUB as boot option from the previous Install, but when I select to boot to it, it just boots me to Windows. Is there any way I can add EOS to it as a secondary option
Edit 1: When I boot the the Grub it just opens Grub Config and if I boot back to Win10 and check msconfig boot option only windows shows up there. Edit 2: So I fixed it. I used something Called Boot-Repair-Disk, Worked Like a Charm sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yannubuntu/boot-repair sudo apt update sudo apt install boot-repair |
If comfortable using the terminal, go here, download the script (click the green dropdown button) and run it. Post the entire RESULTS.txt it generates.
Can be run from a liveUSB. This will give us some configuration data to work with |

You'd be surprised - everybody converting over (from Win especially) wants everything gooey. Sometimes makes it damn hard to help them.

Another option is boot-repair iso, https://sourceforge.net/p/boot-repair-cd/home/Home/ Post the the boot-info results, the boot-repair doesn't always fix correctly.

That listing is about a third of what I expected - if that is all of it, you might need to use a decent liveCD - say systemrescue; or Mint/Fedora/Ubuntu ... almost anything current.
Having an fdisk that can't handle gpt is just unacceptable these days. |
