Deleted Partition With Deepin On It, Now Stuck In Grub Rescue Please Help.

Hi, yesterday I decided to install Deepin in a dual boot. I later decided I no longer needed/wanted it so I deleted the partition. Apparently I had grub on that partition as well, and now my laptop only goes to grub rescue and will not boot.
I have an acer aspire v5 touch. Removing the hard drive is not an option. I have tried to access UEFI but my computer just beeps and goes to grub rescue. I have grub rescue disk on a flash drive, I used unetbootin to do that, but iI cannot get to any boot menu (f12), and when I use ls (hd0)/ I get a unknown file system error. Please help, and sorry for my grammar/formatting, I'm on mobile.
Tl;dr: Deleted partition containing grub and deepin, now can only get to grub rescue, and I keep getting an unknown file system error, please help.

Dual-Booting: Grub Rescue Mode Woes - Help Please :)

Hello!

TL;DR: Deleted Linux partition from Windows. Stuck at Grub rescue prompt.

I'm sorry to trouble you guys, because I'm an idiot.

So I'm wanting to dual-boot Kalilinux and Windows 8.
I went through the steps such as creating a bootable USB, changing the
boot order and so on. I get into Kali, start Gparted and try to partition stuff.

I'm far from an expert, so I wasn't sure what to do. Long-story short, I
didn't seem to get Kali installed correctly, due to something with an EFI
drive being required. So I boot into windows and then stupidly, because it said in the guide,try to "uninstall" Kali by removing it's partition, inside Win8 haha... So I did.

Now I simply get the Grub rescue command prompt when I boot from the same
USB and I have no idea how to fix it. I've run bootrec.exe/fixmbr in Windows haha,
for what it's worth. However Grub can't find any partition it says.

In windows, I have like... 2-3 Recovery partitions. Does anyone know how to remove
them??? I've tried to clear as much as I can, besides the C drive and Auxillary D drive.

Any advice would be very appreciated.

Grub Directory Has Disappeared - Can't Reinstall Grub

I have tried installing a Ubuntu OS onto a partition (sda3).
When I had difficulties with the install, I decided to delete everything from the partition.

But now when I boot the computer, I get taken to the 'grub rescue' prompt.
I have tried to find grub in my other partitions (sda1 and sda2).
However, the command 'ls (hd0,msdos1)/' for example, does not show a grub directory.
It must've transferred grub to sda3 somehow and now I've deleted it.

I have debian live USB and am trying to install grub with:
Code:
apt-get install-grub /dev/sda

But I get the error message:
Code:
bash: grub-install: command not found

So now I don't know what's going on. Can anyone please help?

GRUB Can`t See My Second Xubuntu Partition

Hello, i hope i created this thread in good place

I have 2 linux Xubuntu 14.04 partitions
GRUB shows only one partition, i cannot switch user to the second partition too, but file manager sees it right.

In GParted it looks like this:
 http://s23.postimg.org/igpp2j1jf/Scr...5_19_08_53.png

the bigger dev/sda/1 partition is my old one which i want to boot with GRUB and use it

and /dev/sda/6 is new which i need to remove

But i cannot do this because GRUB doesn`t see /dev/sda/1, so what can i do?

My GRUB version is 2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1, i tried to update it with sudo update-grub but no effects.

Thanks for your effort

I am self taught in everything i know so far.

I have an issue i am looking for some guidance on, i have burned an ISO copy of AVLinux & booted from the Live DVD.

chose to install on partition & created all the necessary file systems etc with GParted then proceeded with the install.

Completed install but when i try to boot no joy.

I have EasyBCD installed on Vista to manage to boot processes.

I am able to get to Grub4dos window & grub> prompt.

I have tried many commands of which i have identifeid the partition is there as correct filesystem, when running the /vmlin....TAB command it locates the name of the linux distro, if i set the drive partition to makeactive it boots up saying no operating system them have to change it back to Vista.

I have two pics that show the grub configuration reading from the live DVD, the install appears to have some missing or not right as opposed to the DVD, can anyone assisst how i can fix this issue?

Do i have to copy each file over manually from the Live DVD's folders?

Cant attach images here so here is the differeneces,

1. /etc/grub.d
2. /boot/grub/device.map

4. grub-mkconfig
5. grub-mkdevicemap--device
6. grub-mkfont
7. /boot/grub

Update Grub Command Not Working

I have made a change to GRUB2 bootloader in etc/default/grub.
Now I need to run 'update grub' for the change to take effect.
However, the 'update grub' command on the terminal is giving this error message:
Code:
root@debian:/# update grub
bash: update: command not found

Can someone please explain why this command is no longer working?

I've had to make a change to grub because I tried to install a new distro which meant I had to alter grub.
The install wasn't successful so I deleted the grub file and then re-installed it.
The re-installed grub needs a change so I can get sound on my pc.
However, I can't add these changes because the 'update grub' command doesn't work.

I've checked the grub file with another debian distro and they are both the same.
So now I don't know if I need to check if a different grub file is the problem or anything else.
Can someone help?

Recovering After Windows 7 Install: Rescue Cannot Mount Root

I have a dual boot laptop with debian stable & Windows 7.

The HD partitions a
sda1: NTFS for W7
sda2: FAT32 (currently unused)
sda3: linux /boot
sda4: linux ext4, which is LVM with encryption

I've re-installed W7 and now need to recover the MBR & grub menu.

I've booted with the netinst usb in rescue mode, but it fails to mount the root partition /sda4:
"An error occured while mounting the device you entered for your root file system (/dev/sda4) on /target"

and /var/syslog shows:
Code:
rescue-mode: selected root device '/dev/sda4'
umount: cant umount /target: Invalid argument
isofs_fill_super: bread failed, dev=sda4, iso_blknum=16, block=32
EXT2-fs (sda4): error: unable to readsuperblock
EXT3-fs (sda4): error: unable to readsuperblock
rescue: mount: mounting /dev/sda4 on /target failed: Invalid argument

So it seems like something is wrong with the mount command?

Would appreciate suggestions how to solve this.

Thanks

Help-Need To Access Files In Crashed Ubuntu Running In Windows 2008 Server HyperV

Help!! In 12.04.5 Ubuntu, the /boot directory was full and had a lot of duplicate files from different dates, some I thought were unnecessary headers of updates. However, one series of files was called vmlinuz-3.2.0-29-generic. I moved all the files to /obsolete_files. I rebooted after having trouble upgrading packages (I think this is a second problem with this machine). I now get the following prompt.
grub rescue>

Is there a way to access the directory system so that I can move those files back? I really only need to retrieve one or two files off the system.

Code:
grub rescue>ls
(hd0) (hd0,msdos5) (hd0,msdos1) (fd0)

It doesn't under boot, or insmod. I can set prefixes. Am I doomed?

GRUB2 Not Seeing Old Distro When New Distro Is Installed

I have an old debian distro installed on hard disk. The distro is on sda1 partition. I also have Win7 on a seperate hard disk which is on sdb1.
When I boot up, GRUB bootloader opens up and gives me the option to select either OS.

So I recently installed a new debian distro and put into my sda2 partition.
But now when I boot up, GRUB only sees the new distro in sda2 and I can't access the distro in sda1 or Win7 in sdb1.

On one thread someone said mounting the partitions and then using 'update-grub' will resolve the problem.
I tried it and re-booted, but GRUB still only offers the newly installed distro in sda2.

Can someone help please?
