重新安装grub

将grub安装在第一个盘，同时指定boot目录，如果有独立的boot分区，可以不指定.

sudo grub-install --boot-directory=/boot /dev/sda

# 更新配置信息，重新生成grub.cfg.

# sudo update-grub           

设置grub的显示模式:

当分辨率不支持的情况下，会显示如下提示：

error “cannot display this video mode” [closed]

处理方法是：

I waited for 10 - 20 seconds on that "cannot display this video mode" screen and then Ubuntu 12.04 desktop came up. this is because the default OS will be selected for booting after timeout if we do not disturb anything. (hands away from keyboard)

After logging in, I edited /etc/default/grub

In terminal:

sudo gedit /etc/default/grub

Uncomment the line (removed the #) for GRUB_GFXMODE=640x480 and save the file.

Again in terminal, I ran update-grub:

sudo update-grub

rebooted then and I could see grub!
