A relative newbie to this, but have used Ubuntu forever and want to start using it again.

I built a new computer recently, but made the partition for Ubuntu too small (15GB), so I created a new 100GB partition.

Now I am trying to reinstall Grub2.04.

I have tried using many techniques, including Grub-rescue, but they all seem to die and I cannot get Grub2.04 reinstalled.

The live USB that I am using has Ubuntu 20.04 LTS installed on it. I am trying to reinstall Grub2.04 to once again use Ubuntu. It seems that I have Ubuntu installed on the 10GB partition, because I can access it using a SuperGrub2 USB.

Currently, I am getting an error "failed to get canonical path of `/cow'" when I run

sudo update-grub

It shouldn't be this hard to reinstall grub2. I will use a program or the terminal.

My NVME drives looks as follows when viewed by GParted:

  • Partition 7 is where I have 100GB sitting with I believe my Ubuntu currently resides.
  • Partitions 5 and 6 is where my Windows 10 resides.
  • Partition 2 is where my Ubuntu used to reside (15GB).

Any assistance would be appreciated.
