Need help with Linux Lite boot issue please
#18
Thanks truckerjay, the ubuntu advice didn't work for me, I get the following output (in red)when I try to apply the text in italics below.

linux@linux:~$ sudo mount /dev/sdc /mnt
mount: /dev/sdc already mounted or /mnt busy

linux@linux:~$ sudo mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev &&
> sudo mount --bind /dev/pts /mnt/dev/pts &&
> sudo mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc &&
> sudo mount --bind /sys /mnt/sys
mount: mount point /mnt/dev does not exist
linux@linux:~$


Mount the partition your Ubuntu Installation is on. If you are not sure which it is, launch GParted (included in the Live CD) and find out. It is usually a EXT4 Partition. Replace the XY with the drive letter, and partition number, for example: sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt.
sudo mount /dev/sdXY /mnt

Now bind the directories that grub needs access to to detect other operating systems, like so.
sudo mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev &&
sudo mount --bind /dev/pts /mnt/dev/pts &&
sudo mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc &&
sudo mount --bind /sys /mnt/sys

Now we jump into that using chroot.
