The title explains it well. But I installed Mint on a 2nd partition, then deleted it since I no longer used it, and now Grub dumps me to the command line on boot :/

How do I recover?

EDIT: gonna give up. Fuck grub lmao EDIT2: Just reinstalled mint and used the grub it gives to fix everything lmfao

    It looks like your /boot partition was on Mint partition

    You can create a new /boot partition and then install your bootloader there

    It’s not complicated

    I don’t remember the exact steps on the top of my mind right now, but it’s something like

    From a live USB (maybe it’s necessary to chroot)

    1. Create a new /boot partition
    2. Install grub on it
    3. Check if your bios is starting from this new efi file. If not, make your bios boot from your new efi file by selecting it manually

    I think that’s it
