@@SavvyNik I just installed Ubuntu 24.04 LTS and I have this problem. This is a 3 years old video, that gave me an idea what is going on. I tried what you say but I have a problem when listing the partitions at the Grub Rescue (version 2.12) terminal prompt. Ok, I have 2 SSDS both 2 TB. hd0 = Windows 11 hd1 = Ubuntu 24.04 LTS grub> ls (hd1,gpt1)/ efi. System Volume Information grub> ls (hd1,gpt2)/ error unknown filesystem I assume my root is on (hd1,gpt2)/ but I can't list it. Perhaps you know how to solve this for the new Ubuntu; thanks if you can. ps: It is a shame after I installed Ubuntu 24.04 it seemed to work good just when I rebooted I get this grub rescue screen. I took notes on your old video, but there is probably changes and no longer works.

I got this problem today when I installed Mint on my desktop PC with three different drives. I previously had Debian installed on my larger SSD, but installed Mint on my smaller one. So I did that and formatted both my other large disks and mounted them, and GRUB freaked out sending me to rescue on boot. Managed to start it, but got tired of having to do it each time. The part I missed to do was the last one, grub-install, so thanks for that! Now everything works

Thanks you saved my Linux mint install, the context is I tried to install Ubuntu and try it for a while after already having installed Linux mint. Once I installed it, Ubuntu took over grub and so I decided to boot into mint after I was done with Ubuntu and removed the partition, after that I got put into the grub command line after deleting it. Follow the tutorial and saved grub again. I'm downloading this video to my phone so in case this happens again while my Internet is gone I can rely on this.

When I reboot I still get the grub error, but if I change the booting order in the bios to ParrotOS, then it will load its own GRUB boot loader and I then can see my Kali image there, I can click on it and I can get into Kali from ParrotOS grub. I'm afraid to uninstall grub in case it does something to ParrotOS. I will load to ParrotOS boot screen with the options, then I will pick Kali, two more steps but I can work it.

IMO the best is installing on the USB directly. This takes away any mistakes a 3rd part program can make while creating persistence. Also then you don't have to deal with the fact that the persistent USB might have been meant as an installation image. The benefit of a persistent USB? Maybe that it's just easier to setup.
