grub rescue problem

  • Download boot repair software from http://sourceforge.net/p/boot-repair/home/Home/
  • Download iso version of the software(boot-repair-disk.iso) and create a bootable usb using linux live usb creator
  • Change the boot option to usb flash drive in the computer which has grub rescue problem by hitting F2 key(this is the case in lenovo laptop)
  • Then insert the created bootable usb into the computer and reboot
  • The boot repair software runs ... now choose the appropriate system version(32bit or 64bit)
  • Then choose recommended repair and follow on screen directions
  • Do a final reboot and you can see the OS loading without any grub rescue errors
